NIST The "setAttributeNode(newAttr)" method raises an "INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR DOMException if the "newAttr" is already an attribute of another element. Retrieve the first emp:address and append a newly created element. The "createAttributeNS(namespaceURI,qualifiedName)" and "setAttributeNodeNS(newAttr)" methods are invoked to create and add a new attribute to the newly created Element. The "setAttributeNodeNS(newAttr)" method is once again called to add the new attribute causing an exception to be raised since the attribute is already an attribute of another element.
