http://philip.html5.org/misc/xmlns-attr-dom.html

Proposal says:

name:         ???
nodeName:     foo:bar
localName:    bar
prefix:       foo
namespaceURI: http://foo.example.com/

IE8 (and compat and quirks) says:

name:         foo:bar
nodeName:     foo:bar
localName:    undefined
prefix:       undefined
namespaceURI: undefined

Everybody else says:

name:         foo:bar
nodeName:     foo:bar
localName:    foo:bar
prefix:       null
namespaceURI: null

Everybody in XHTML (http://philip.html5.org/misc/xmlns-attr-dom.xhtml) says:

name:         foo:bar
nodeName:     foo:bar
localName:    bar
prefix:       foo
namespaceURI: http://foo.example.com/
