namespaceURI
The string specifying the namespace prefix that qualifies the attribute name.

Return Value

An object. Returns the attribute node removed, or Null if no node was removed.

xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
   WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   nodeBook = xmlDoc.selectSingleNode("//book");
   WScript.Echo(nodeBook.attributes.length);
   nodeBook.attributes.removeQualifiedItem("id", "");
   WScript.Echo(nodeBook.attributes.length);
}
