Remarks
Attributes can be associated with an element. Use the OwnerElement property to get the XmlElement to which to the attribute belongs.
The XmlElement class has several methods which allow you to access attribute nodes (XmlElement.GetAttribute, XmlElement.SetAttribute, XmlElement.RemoveAttribute, and so on). Additionally, you can call the XmlElement.Attributes property which returns an XmlAttributeCollection enabling you to access attributes by name or index from the collection.
