HTML DOM Attributes
The Attr Object
In the HTML DOM, an Attr object represents an HTML attribute.
An HTML attribute always belongs to an HTML element.
NamedNodeMap
A NamedNodeMap is an array-like unordered collection of an element's attributes.
In other words: a NamedNodeMap is a list of Attr objects.
A NamedNodeMap has a length property that returns the number of nodes.
The nodes can be accessed by name or index numbers. The index starts at 0.
