jsb.behavior.get() doesn't handle boolean attributes correctly

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi again,

Just a problem I saw in the get() method when getting a boolean value: it
treats boolean values as HTML treats boolean attributes: it always return
true if the attribute is here.

However this makes this use-case impossible:
- Value is true if no attribute
- People can switch to false with attr="0" or something like this

Thus, I think the "return true" for boolean values could be advantageously
changed to:

return ( value == "0"  || value.toLowerCase()=="off" ) ? false : true;

esc0-

PS: Forgot to mention in my previous report: I work using a 48hrs old svn
trunk.

If you define the default value of the attribute as a boolean then the 
attribute value 
defined on the element will be cast to boolean. If you want to use other values 
like 
on/off then you will have to override the get() method of your behavior.

Is this good enough?
