The removeAttributeNS() method deletes the attribute specified by the namespace and name.
Syntax:
elementNode.removeAttributeNS(ns, name)
| Parameters | Description |

Example
In all examples, we will use the XML file books_ns.xml, and JavaScript function loadXMLDoc().
The following code snippet removes the "lang" attribute from the first <title> element in "books_ns.xml":
xmlDoc=loadXMLDoc("books_ns.xml");
x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("title")[0];
ns="http://www.codew3c.com/children/";
document.write("Attribute Found: ");
document.write(x.hasAttributeNS(ns,"lang");
x.removeAttributeNS(ns,"lang");
document.write("<br />Attribute Found: ");
document.write(x.hasAttributeNS(ns,"lang");
Output:
Attribute Found: true Attribute Found: false
