I put some javascript code to the page and show it on SWT browser. When I try to execute my javascript code, it return the wrong result. When I debug into the javascript code I found that the element.getAttribute() return the different value from working on IE (it return null on SWT Browser while return a string on IE). Is there any suggestion on this problem or how can I solve it?

My data is like this:
<dfn datasrc='abcdef' title='ABCD'>text here</dfn>

I use the same code (in fact, it is the same page) but when I execute the dfn.getAttribute('datasrc') on IE it return 'abcdef' correctly. But on SWT browser it return 'null' instead. Both browser found the dfn element but only IE can get attribute from it.

I thought that running SWT Browser on Windows using IE as the browser but why the results are different?

Hi,

The Browser does embed IE by default on Windows, so I don't know why this
difference would happen. If you log a report with swt at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Platform &component=SWT
and provide a way of reproducing the problem (the problem page, anything
else that's relevant) then it can be investigated.

Thanks,
Grant

I create the bug on

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=320060

This is my first time reporting a bug to eclipse. I'm not sure I do it correctly or not. But, anyway, thank you for your suggestion.
