Type "document.createAttribute('id')" into the console. You get a blank line. You should get a node like any other node.

Thanks Ojan. Consider using the http://webkit.org/new-inspector-bug link, available
on the Bugzilla "New Bug" page https://bugs.webkit.org/enter_bug.cgi

Looks like we don't support just printing an attribute in
WebInspector.ElementsTreeElement.prototype._nodeTitleInfo.
It should be added. case Node.ATTRIBUTE_NODE is missing from that long switch.

[PATCH] Print Out Attributes

Thanks for the test with this.

This is definitely an improvement, but it seems to me that we'd want to output an object in the same way we do with Elements so that you can inspect the attribute object. Is that possible?

I am not sure I understand the request. Could you clarify?

What more is there to inspect? The name / value are the important parts. Is
there some more data we are missing?

Also, if you do want to view everything use dir(). That will force a listing as
an object tree, allowing you to see all properties / values / prototype chain.

[Ojan Vafai]

Ugh. Nevermind me. I just wasn't thinking straight.
