Hi,

I'm puzzled about some new strings in dom.properties. They all have a
similar structure, like this:

Use of attributes' appendChild() is deprecated. Use value instead.

Use of attributes' attributes attribute is deprecated. It always
returns null.

Use of attributes' childNodes attribute is deprecated. It always
returns null.

The first part, "Use of attributes'" is what I quite can't get. In the
first sentence I could rephrase the sentence as "Use of appendChild in
attributes is...".

But then, the second one shows it is probably wrong. At least, it has
little sense to me rephrasing it as "Use of atribute attributes in
attributes is...". Or has it?

How are other localizers dealing with these sentences?

TIA

Not a clue... I just saw those strings and I can't understand them either.

Hey,
it is imho about deprecating all those weird attributes/methods of
attribute node.

<div id="xxx"></div>
<script>
document.write(document.getElementById('xxx').attributes['id'].hasChildNodes());
document.write(document.getElementById('xxx').attributes['id'].attributes);
</script>

> Use of attributes' attributes attribute is deprecated.

I would say:

Use of attributes attribute of attribute node is deprecated.

I would probably choose:

Attr::appendChild() is deprecated. Use Attr::value instead.

Attr::attributes is deprecated. It always returns null.

Attr::childNodes is deprecated. It always returns null.
