an attribute appears containing the default value and the corresponding namespace URI, local name, and prefix, if
applicable.
Arguments
name
• The name argument is a DOMString that is the name of the attribute to remove.
Returns
Nothing.
element.setTranslatedAttribute()
Availability
Dreamweaver CS3.
Description
This function is the same as the W3C
setAttribute() function, but acts on translated attributes. The
element.setTranslatedAttribute() function adds a new attribute with the value specified. If an attribute with the
specified name already exists in the element, its value is changed to that specified in the value argument.
The value is a simple string; it is not parsed as it is being set. Therefore, any syntax included in the string is treated as
simple text, and must be appropriately escaped by the implementation when it is written out.
To assign an attribute value that contains syntax intended to be recognized as an entity reference, you must create an
Attr node plus any Text and EntityReference nodes, build the appropriate subtree, and use setAttributeNode to
assign it as the value of an attribute.
Arguments
name, value
• The name argument is a DOMString that is the name of the attribute to create or change.
• The value argument is a DOMString that is the value to set for the attribute.
Returns
Nothing.
