on assigning wrong strings to align attribute, it even returns same wrong
strings if we access the same attribute.
Getting little confusing.
Here is an example.
If we assign TR.align = "RigHT" & if we try to access
"document.getElementsByTagName( "TR" )[i].align" then it returns "RigHT".
It should return "Right".
BUILDS:
2001-04-10-04 [Win95]
2001-04-10-04 [Mac]
2001-04-10-14 {Linux]
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1] Please visit URL above.
2] Click button "Show me TR align"
EXPECTED RESULTS: alert should show 3 messages like following
document.getElementsByTagName('TR')[0].align = Center
document.getElementsByTagName('TR')[1].align = Left
document.getElementsByTagName('TR')[2].align = Right
ACTUAL RESULTS: alert shows 3 messages like following
document.getElementsByTagName('TR')[0].align = CENTER
document.getElementsByTagName('TR')[1].align = left
document.getElementsByTagName('TR')[2].align = RighT
pasting the testcase code too. same testcase at URL above.

Changing Componenet. I guess this is DOM-HTML.
Component: HTMLTables → DOM HTML

Same thing happens if we try to do with "valign" too.
Like "TOP", "middle", "BottoM".

In my opinion this is invalid. Those attribute values don't map to a useful
possible value, so we just store them as strings. That's what we should be
doing....

Erm, this looks invalid, but for entierly different reasons. It doesn't look
like the code is actually setting and reading the attribute. It rather just sets
a local variable and prints it out.
Or am I missing some fundamental part of JS here?

It's setting a property in the W3C DOM that's mapped to an attribute...
is it? AFAICT it sets the local variable 't'.
t=setTo[i];
alert("document.getElementsByTagName('TR')[" + [i] + "].align =" + t);
