    - #### getTagName

          public java.lang.String getTagName()

      Description copied from interface: `org.w3c.dom.Element`

          public void setAttribute(java.lang.String name,
                                   java.lang.String value)
                            throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

      Description copied from interface: `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Adds a new attribute. If an attribute with that name is already present in the element, its value is changed to be that of the value parameter. This value is a simple string; it is not parsed as it is being set. So any markup (such as syntax to be recognized as an entity reference) is treated as literal text, and needs to be appropriately escaped by the implementation when it is written out. In order to assign an attribute value that contains entity references, the user 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.
      To set an attribute with a qualified name and namespace URI, use the `setAttributeNS` method.
      Specified by:
        `setAttribute` in interface `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Parameters:
        `name` - The name of the attribute to create or alter.
        `value` - Value to set in string form.
      Throws:
        `org.w3c.dom.DOMException` - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified name is not an XML name according to the XML version in use specified in the `Document.xmlVersion` attribute.
        NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.

    - #### removeAttribute

          public void removeAttribute(java.lang.String name)
                               throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

      Description copied from interface: `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Removes an attribute by name. If a default value for the removed attribute is defined in the DTD, a new attribute immediately appears with the default value as well as the corresponding namespace URI, local name, and prefix when applicable. The implementation may handle default values from other schemas similarly but applications should use `Document.normalizeDocument()` to guarantee this information is up-to-date.
      If no attribute with this name is found, this method has no effect.
      To remove an attribute by local name and namespace URI, use the `removeAttributeNS` method.
      Specified by:
        `removeAttribute` in interface `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Parameters:
        `name` - The name of the attribute to remove.
      Throws:
        `org.w3c.dom.DOMException` - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.

          public org.w3c.dom.Attr removeAttributeNode(org.w3c.dom.Attr oldAttr)
                                               throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

      Description copied from interface: `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Removes the specified attribute node. If a default value for the removed `Attr` node is defined in the DTD, a new node immediately appears with the default value as well as the corresponding namespace URI, local name, and prefix when applicable. The implementation may handle default values from other schemas similarly but applications should use `Document.normalizeDocument()` to guarantee this information is up-to-date.
      Specified by:
        `removeAttributeNode` in interface `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Parameters:
        `oldAttr` - The `Attr` node to remove from the attribute list.
      Returns:
        The `Attr` node that was removed.
      Throws:
        `org.w3c.dom.DOMException` - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
        NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if `oldAttr` is not an attribute of the element.

    - #### setAttributeNode

          public org.w3c.dom.Attr setAttributeNode(org.w3c.dom.Attr newAttr)
                                            throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

      Description copied from interface: `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Adds a new attribute node. If an attribute with that name ( `nodeName`) is already present in the element, it is replaced by the new one. Replacing an attribute node by itself has no effect.
      To add a new attribute node with a qualified name and namespace URI, use the `setAttributeNodeNS` method.
      Specified by:
        `setAttributeNode` in interface `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Parameters:
        `newAttr` - The `Attr` node to add to the attribute list.
      Returns:
        If the `newAttr` attribute replaces an existing attribute, the replaced `Attr` node is returned, otherwise `null` is returned.
      Throws:
        `org.w3c.dom.DOMException` - WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if `newAttr` was created from a different document than the one that created the element.
        NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
        INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR: Raised if `newAttr` is already an attribute of another `Element` object. The DOM user must explicitly clone `Attr` nodes to re-use them in other elements.

    - #### setAttributeNS

          public void setAttributeNS(java.lang.String namespaceURI,
                                     java.lang.String qualifiedName,
                                     java.lang.String value)
                              throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

      Description copied from interface: `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Adds a new attribute. If an attribute with the same local name and namespace URI is already present on the element, its prefix is changed to be the prefix part of the `qualifiedName`, and its value is changed to be the `value` parameter. This value is a simple string; it is not parsed as it is being set. So any markup (such as syntax to be recognized as an entity reference) is treated as literal text, and needs to be appropriately escaped by the implementation when it is written out. In order to assign an attribute value that contains entity references, the user must create an `Attr` node plus any `Text` and `EntityReference` nodes, build the appropriate subtree, and use `setAttributeNodeNS` or `setAttributeNode` to assign it as the value of an attribute.
      Per [XML Namespaces] , applications must use the value `null` as the `namespaceURI` parameter for methods if they wish to have no namespace.
      Specified by:
        `setAttributeNS` in interface `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Parameters:
        `namespaceURI` - The namespace URI of the attribute to create or alter.
        `qualifiedName` - The qualified name of the attribute to create or alter.
        `value` - The value to set in string form.
      Throws:
        `org.w3c.dom.DOMException` - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified qualified name is not an XML name according to the XML version in use specified in the `Document.xmlVersion` attribute.
        NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
        NAMESPACE_ERR: Raised if the `qualifiedName` is malformed per the Namespaces in XML specification, if the `qualifiedName` has a prefix and the `namespaceURI` is `null`, if the `qualifiedName` has a prefix that is "xml" and the `namespaceURI` is different from " http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace", if the `qualifiedName` or its prefix is "xmlns" and the `namespaceURI` is different from "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/", or if the `namespaceURI` is "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/" and neither the `qualifiedName` nor its prefix is "xmlns".
        NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: May be raised if the implementation does not support the feature `"XML"` and the language exposed through the Document does not support XML Namespaces (such as [HTML 4.01]).

      If the parameter `isId` is `true`, this method declares the specified attribute to be a user-determined ID attribute . This affects the value of `Attr.isId` and the behavior of `Document.getElementById`, but does not change any schema that may be in use, in particular this does not affect the `Attr.schemaTypeInfo` of the specified `Attr` node. Use the value `false` for the parameter `isId` to undeclare an attribute for being a user-determined ID attribute.
      Specified by:
        `setIdAttributeNode` in interface `org.w3c.dom.Element`
      Parameters:
        `at` - The attribute node.
        `makeId` - Whether the attribute is a of type ID.
      Throws:
        `org.w3c.dom.DOMException` - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
        NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if the specified node is not an attribute of this element.
