NamedNodeMap Objects
....................

`NamedNodeMap' does _not_ inherit from `Node'.

`length'
     The length of the attribute list.

`item(index)'
     Return an attribute with a particular index.  The order you get the
     attributes in is arbitrary but will be consistent for the life of a
     DOM.  Each item is an attribute node.  Get its value with the
     `value' attribbute.

There are also experimental methods that give this class more mapping
behavior.  You can use them or you can use the standardized
`getAttribute*()'-family methods on the `Element' objects.
