Hi Pete,
Xerces doesn't track the position of attributes. I don't know of any XM=
L
parser that does. It imposes additional overhead for information that a=
n
application is unlikely to be read, primarily because it isn't exposed
through any of the XML APIs (JAXP, JAXB, etc...) available in Java SE.
Thanks.
