1. $(xmlDOM).find('Table [name="'+tabela+'"]').each(function(){
2.       $(this).attr("confirmation","true");
3. });
4. 
   
5. console.log(XMLToString(xmlDOM));

When I check the console, the attribute confirmation is with it old value (false).

This is working according to my last test:

1. var tables = xmlDOM.getElementsByTagName("Table");
3. for(var i = 0; i < tables.length; i++){
4.       if(tables[i].getAttribute("name") == tabela){
5.             tables[i].setAttribute("confirmation","true");
6.       }
7. }

When I use "$(xmlDOM)" I can get all the attributes and loop through nodes (find, next, parent, etc...), but updating attributes is not working.

What I could do was something like this:

1. var current = $(xmlDOM).find('Table [name="'+tabela+'"]');
2. 
   
3. current.attr("confirmation", "true");
4. 
   
5. console.log(current.attr("confirmation"));

and checking the console, the value of confirmation is "true", but printing the xmlDOM shows me the attribute unchanged. (I'm not using .each function here because I have only one element that match that name).

Also, the XML2String function is this:

1. function XMLToString(oXML) {  
2. if (window.ActiveXObject) {     
3. return oXML.xml;   
4. } else {     
5. return (new XMLSerializer()).serializeToString(oXML);   
6. } 
7. }

It works with xmlDOM but not with $(xmlDOM).

Could someone help me and say what I'm doing wrong??? 

Glad if someone can help! =)
