236464 - Attr node names not uppercase when read out, in HTML mode

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[David "liorean" Andersson]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8

When attribute nodes are created, their names preserve the input case, instead
of being uppercased as [DOM2HTML] specifies. See testcase (which also exhibits
another bug which I have reported earlier). 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. var oAttr=document.createAttribute('class');
2. if(oAttr.name!='CLASS')alert('Error! Should report \'CLASS\', not \'class\',
according to [DOM2HTML]')

Actual Results:  
oAttr.name=='class';

Expected Results:  
oAttr.name=='CLASS';

The tricky part here is that we can't rely on having an mContent pointer. So we
might need to put a flag in the attributenode itself.

https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-document-createattribute defines createAttribute() now and what we do is correct.
