XML Path Language (XPath): Attribute Nodes (476 words)
	Elements never share attribute nodes: if one element node is not the same node as another element node, then none of the attribute nodes of the one element node will be the same node as the attribute nodes of another element node.
	However, this does not affect where attribute nodes appear in the tree: an element has attribute nodes only for attributes that were explicitly specified in the start-tag or empty-element tag of that element or that were explicitly declared in the DTD with a default value.
	An attribute whose normalized value is a zero-length string is not treated specially: it results in an attribute node whose [string-value] is a zero-length string.
