Windows Internet Explorer 8 and later. In IE8 Standards mode, the IHTMLInputElement::defaultChecked Document Object Model (DOM) attribute reflects the value of the IHTMLInputElement::checked content attribute. For more information, see Attribute Differences in Internet Explorer 8.
Internet Explorer 8 and later. In IE8 mode, parsing operations on the IHTMLInputElement::checked content attribute always affect both the IHTMLInputElement::checked content attribute and IHTMLInputElement::defaultChecked DOM attribute. For example, IHTMLEventObj2::removeAttribute sets both IHTMLInputElement::checked and IHTMLInputElement::defaultChecked to VARIANT_FALSE. Similarly, IHTMLElement::setAttribute sets both DOM attributes to VARIANT_TRUE (as if the element was being re-parsed).
