           Summary: "createAttribute" "setAttributeNode" have no complete

http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-document-createattribute

[[
createAttribute
]]

http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-element-setattributenode

[[
setAttributeNode
]]

There is no alternate method provided for setting an attribute with no value. 
For example, the only way to set the checked, selected or disabled attribute
with no value is with element.setAttributeNode( document.createAttribute(
'selected' ) );

The behavior is subtly different then setting the element property as
element.selected = true; because the attribute persists when a form is reset.
