          Platform: Unspecified

== Overview ==

When serializing a document where attributes have been added using .setAttributeNs(), the serialization is invalid XML.


== Steps to Reproduce ==

Execute the following code:

  var doc = (new DOMParser()).parseFromString("<test xmlns='http://www.example.com'/>","text/xml");
  doc.documentElement.setAttributeNS("http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace","id","abc");
  doc.documentElement.setAttributeNS("http://www.example.com/dummy/namespace","foo","bar");
  console.log((new XMLSerializer()).serializeToString(doc));

(can be found at http://jsfiddle.net/c4jBw/)


== Actual Results ==

  <test xmlns="http://www.example.com" id="abc" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" foo="bar" xmlns="http://www.example.com/dummy/namespace"/> 


== Expected Results ==

  <test xmlns="http://www.example.com" xml:id="abc" a0:foo="bar" xmlns:a0="http://www.example.com/dummy/namespace"/>


== Software Version ==

First encountered with Safari 5.1.7 (7534.57.2) on Windows 7


== Additional Comments ==

The main problem are three xmlns attributes.  The second problem is that the added attributes are in the null namespace.

The correct example output is taken from Firefox 21.
