createAttributeNS("namespaceURI", "qualifiedName")
Generates in memory an instance of an attribute node (Attr object) whose name is defined in an external namespace. A typical sequence is to create the attribute, assign a value to it via its nodeValue property, and then insert the Attr node into an element's attribute list via the element's setAttributeNodeNS( ) method.

Parameters

`namespaceURI` URI string that will match a URI assigned to a label earlier in the document into which the attribute is eventually added. `qualifiedName` The full name for the attribute, consisting of the local name prefix (if any), a colon, and the local name.

Returned Value
Attr node object reference.
