Adding an attribute to an element
Since the Actions parameter of the XmlProcessor macro is a Collection parameter, it also supports an abbreviated syntax. This is very useful for simple actions like adding an attribute to an element. For historical reasons, the existance of the checked attribute - not the value - determines whether an HTML checkbox is checked. Using this method demonstrated in this example, you can optionally add the check attribute and still use the declarative, easy to read, element notation.
