SetAttribute on XML in JavaScript

[Cantona7]

We're trying to set an XML attribute within some JavaScript code. The following only seems to work on some browsers, and even then we're not sure what makes it work/not work

objXMLElem.setAttribute("XXX&quot = strTemp


From the documentation,
objXMLElem.setAttribute("XXX", strTemp)
appears to be the only defined method of doing this.

Any idea on the differences between these two? Is the first some sort of unsupported extension?

thanks

the first would be incorrect syntax! ;-)

Well yes...but then why does it work on some IE5.5 SP 2 machines and not other IE5.5 SP2 machines?!

who knows...best bet is to use proper syntax.
