Element does not support namespacing

[131.php@…]

When you create a "new Element". Mootools proceed with

el = document.createElement(el);

In order to make it XHTML compliant, i had to add

var XHTML = "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";

el=document.createElementNS

?document.createElementNS(XHTML,el)
:document.createElement(el);

IE6/7 doesn't support/bother namespacing, so there's no "issue" here.

What effect has the missing NS on the created element?

An element is not interpreded as an HTML element, so, it is like if you were trying to add "<butterfly>this have to be bold !</butterfly>" in a HTML page...

Bug
http://php.cloudyks.org/ => with a patch

http://php.cloudyks.org/js/mts/patch_xhtml.js

Without my 'patch'

http://php.cloudyks.org/index2.xml

More generally, every $$, $E, ... are broken
I heard the whole selector module will be re-written, i thing namespacing support have to be in taken care of at the very beginning.

Broken in http://dev.mootools.net/browser/trunk/Source/Element/Element.js?rev=1000
I guess it was removed aside with

"fixed a typo I made in the last commit that broke Element constructor (sorry). "
