XML attribute

This syntax element is the default name-value element supported by the XML parser. Use it to represent the attributes associated with its parent element. The name and value of the syntax element correspond to the name and value of the attribute being represented. Attribute elements have no children, and must always be children of an element.

When attributes are written to a message, occurrences of ampersand (&), less than (<), greater than (>), double quote ("), and apostrophe (') within the attribute value are replaced by the predefined XML entities &amp;, &lt;, &gt;, &quot;, and &apos;.

The attr element is also supported for backward compatibility.
