Re: Attributes are written in lower case

Hi Chregu

I didn't find the time to extract a reproducable example. Basically,
just add an attribute with chars in uppercase.

I did some further investigation and found out, that replacing
o.hasAttribute(this.name) with o.hasAttributeNS(null, this.name)
in the file AttributeVDOM.js does the trick re validation.
If it comes to a save operation after editing the attribute,
it is still written in lowercase and bitflux complains that it is not
valid.

I suspect that there is a bug in the Gecko DOM implementation,
as Element.hasAttribute() does not work correctly.
Maybe there is a problem with the getAttribute() function
(possibly it's also used in hasAttribute()).
