public boolean hasAttributeNS(String namespaceURI,
                     String localName)
```
    Returns true when an attribute with a given local name and namespace URI is specified on this element or has a default value, false otherwise.
    Per [XML Namespaces] , applications must use the value null as the namespaceURI parameter for methods if they wish to have no namespace.

    DOM Level 2
  - setAttribute
```
public void setAttribute(String name,
                String value)
```
    Adds a new attribute. If an attribute with that name is already present in the element, its value is changed to be that of the value parameter. This value is a simple string; it is not parsed as it is being set. So any markup (such as syntax to be recognized as an entity reference) is treated as literal text, and needs to be appropriately escaped by the implementation when it is written out. In order to assign an attribute value that contains entity references, the user must create an Attr node plus any Text and EntityReference nodes, build the appropriate subtree, and use setAttributeNode to assign it as the value of an attribute.
    To set an attribute with a qualified name and namespace URI, use the setAttributeNS method.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setAttribute in interface Element
    
    Parameters:
    name - The name of the attribute to create or alter.
    value - Value to set in string form.
    
    Throws:
    
    DOMException - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified name is not an XML name according to the XML version in use specified in the Document.xmlVersion attribute.
    NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
  - setAttributeNode
```
public Attribute setAttributeNode(Attr newAttr)
```
    Adds a new attribute node. If an attribute with that name ( nodeName) is already present in the element, it is replaced by the new one. Replacing an attribute node by itself has no effect.
    To add a new attribute node with a qualified name and namespace URI, use the setAttributeNodeNS method.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setAttributeNode in interface Element
    
    Parameters:
    newAttr - The Attr node to add to the attribute list.
    
    Returns:
    If the newAttr attribute replaces an existing attribute, the replaced Attr node is returned, otherwise null is returned.
    
    Throws:
    
    DOMException - WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if newAttr was created from a different document than the one that created the element.
    NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
    INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR: Raised if newAttr is already an attribute of another Element object. The DOM user must explicitly clone Attr nodes to re-use them in other elements.
  - removeAttribute
```
public void removeAttribute(String name)
```
    Removes an attribute by name. If a default value for the removed attribute is defined in the DTD, a new attribute immediately appears with the default value as well as the corresponding namespace URI, local name, and prefix when applicable. The implementation may handle default values from other schemas similarly but applications should use Document.normalizeDocument() to guarantee this information is up-to-date.
    If no attribute with this name is found, this method has no effect.
    To remove an attribute by local name and namespace URI, use the removeAttributeNS method.
    
    Specified by:
    
    removeAttribute in interface Element
    
    Parameters:
    name - The name of the attribute to remove.
    
    Throws:
    
    DOMException - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
  - removeAttributeNode
```
public Attribute removeAttributeNode(Attr oldAttr)
```
    Removes the specified attribute node. If a default value for the removed Attr node is defined in the DTD, a new node immediately appears with the default value as well as the corresponding namespace URI, local name, and prefix when applicable. The implementation may handle default values from other schemas similarly but applications should use Document.normalizeDocument() to guarantee this information is up-to-date.
    
    Specified by:
    
    removeAttributeNode in interface Element
    
    Parameters:
    oldAttr - The Attr node to remove from the attribute list.
    
    Returns:
    The Attr node that was removed.
    
    Throws:
    
    DOMException - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
    NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if oldAttr is not an attribute of the element.
  - setAttributeNodeNS
```
public Attr setAttributeNodeNS(Attr newAttr)
```
    Adds a new attribute. If an attribute with that local name and that namespace URI is already present in the element, it is replaced by the new one. Replacing an attribute node by itself has no effect.
    Per [XML Namespaces] , applications must use the value null as the namespaceURI parameter for methods if they wish to have no namespace.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setAttributeNodeNS in interface Element
    
    Parameters:
    newAttr - The Attr node to add to the attribute list.
    
    Returns:
    If the newAttr attribute replaces an existing attribute with the same local name and namespace URI, the replaced Attr node is returned, otherwise null is returned.
    
    Throws:
    
    DOMException - WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if newAttr was created from a different document than the one that created the element.
    NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
    INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR: Raised if newAttr is already an attribute of another Element object. The DOM user must explicitly clone Attr nodes to re-use them in other elements.
    NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: May be raised if the implementation does not support the feature "XML" and the language exposed through the Document does not support XML Namespaces (such as [HTML 4.01]).

```
public void setAttributeNS(String namespaceURI,
                  String qualifiedName,
                  String value)
```
    Adds a new attribute. If an attribute with the same local name and namespace URI is already present on the element, its prefix is changed to be the prefix part of the qualifiedName, and its value is changed to be the value parameter. This value is a simple string; it is not parsed as it is being set. So any markup (such as syntax to be recognized as an entity reference) is treated as literal text, and needs to be appropriately escaped by the implementation when it is written out. In order to assign an attribute value that contains entity references, the user must create an Attr node plus any Text and EntityReference nodes, build the appropriate subtree, and use setAttributeNodeNS or setAttributeNode to assign it as the value of an attribute.
    Per [XML Namespaces] , applications must use the value null as the namespaceURI parameter for methods if they wish to have no namespace.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setAttributeNS in interface Element
    
    Parameters:
    namespaceURI - The namespace URI of the attribute to create or alter.
    qualifiedName - The qualified name of the attribute to create or alter.
    value - The value to set in string form.
    
    Throws:
    
    DOMException - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified qualified name is not an XML name according to the XML version in use specified in the Document.xmlVersion attribute.
    NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
    NAMESPACE_ERR: Raised if the qualifiedName is malformed per the Namespaces in XML specification, if the qualifiedName has a prefix and the namespaceURI is null, if the qualifiedName has a prefix that is "xml" and the namespaceURI is different from " http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace", if the qualifiedName or its prefix is "xmlns" and the namespaceURI is different from "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/", or if the namespaceURI is "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/" and neither the qualifiedName nor its prefix is "xmlns".
    NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: May be raised if the implementation does not support the feature "XML" and the language exposed through the Document does not support XML Namespaces (such as [HTML 4.01]).

    index - The index at which attribute to be moved
    
    Throws:
    
    IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the index is out of range (index < 0 || index > size()).
    
    IllegalStateException - if a attr has not already been added to a tree.
  - reorderAttribute
```
public void reorderAttribute(int[] permutation)
```
    Rearranges attribute list to the given permutaion.
    
    Parameters:
    permutation - integer array with index represents current index and value is final index after reordered.
  - appendAttribute
```
public void appendAttribute(Attribute newAttr)
```
    This api adds new attribute at the end. This api is provided for XDMModel purposes only.
    
    Parameters:
    newAttr - The new attribute to be added.
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if a newAttr has already been added to a tree.
  - appendChild
```
public Node appendChild(Node node)
```
    Description copied from class: NodeImpl
    
    Adds the node newChild to the end of the list of children of this node. Since the model is immutable checks if current node and node being added are not already in tree.
    
    Specified by:
    
    appendChild in interface Node
    
    Overrides:
    
    appendChild in class NodeImpl
    
    Returns:
    The node added.
  - appendChild

  - insertBefore
```
public Node insertBefore(Node newChild,
                Node refChild)
                  throws DOMException
```
    Description copied from class: NodeImpl
    
    Inserts the node newChild before the existing child node refChild. If refChild is null, insert newChild at the end of the list of children. Since the model is immutable checks if current node and node being inserted are not already in tree.
    
    Specified by:
    
    insertBefore in interface Node
    
    Overrides:
    
    insertBefore in class NodeImpl
    
    Parameters:
    newChild - - The node to insert.
    refChild - - The reference node, i.e., the node before which the new node must be inserted.
    
    Returns:
    The node being inserted.
    
    Throws:
    
    DOMException
