The setNamedItemNS() method of the NamedNodeMap interface puts the Attr identified by its name in the map. If there was already an Attr with the same name in the map, it is replaced.
Note: This method is an alias of setNamedItem() you can use them interchangeably.
Returns the old attribute if replaced, or null if the attribute is new.
