Set node.localName

Hey,

That's from DOM 2, but having localName available (even if as an alias to tagName) would make Minidom compatible with the Xpath library out of the box. I think. :-)

It is actually from level 1, and I've just looked at bringing across the latest changes from JSDom which include this property. Sadly it wasn't straight forward, so: yep this will happen when I get a bit of time.

Cool! Thanks.

While you're at it, would you mind taking a look at why the Xpath library breaks on Minidom Node's attributes? It seems to work with the XMLDOM library, though. :-)

Or do you happen to know of a decoupled querySelector implementation that one could use with the returned DOM from Minidom if Xpath's not a go? All of the ones I've found so far have been tied to a global documents object.

PS. Totally hijacking a thread, I know. 😇
