The XUL Reference documents the attributes and properties of XUL 
elements.  For example, it says that the value property of the checkbox 
element <http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XUL:checkbox#p-value> 
"gets and sets the value of the value attribute."

HTML also has both attributes and properties, and, if I remember 
correctly, like XUL it is not entirely consistent about when to use 
which ones.
