  Hi

But is the following true: an element node's consists of
the name of the element; a text node consists of the CDATA
assigned to that node; But an attribute node consists of
the name of an attribute *as well* as its CDATA - is this
not inconsistent?

  I don't think so.  A node may have a name, and has a
string value (and may have a typed value in XPath 2.0).  But
an element can have in addition sub-nodes, as its content
may be more complex than a simple string.

  For an attribute, obviously, you don't need a tree with
sub-nodes.  You just need a single node, with two properties:
its name and its value.

  It sounds rather logical to me, isn't it?
