[VE][html5] name attribute in <a>

Lines of code:
<a href="elinfo.html"
onmouseover="document.elinfo.src='Images/elinfohover.png'"
onmouseout="document.elinfo.src='Images/elinfo.png'">
  <img src="Images/elinfo.png" alt="EL Info" name="elinfo" width="190"
height="70" class="imgina"/>
</a>
The Validator told me that [name="elinfo"] was not necessary, when in
fact it is for the lines of Java above it.
