Daryl Olander resolved BEEHIVE-475:
-----------------------------------

     Assign To: Krista Baker  (was: Daryl Olander)
    Resolution: Fixed

So the problem is that in IE calling getAttribute(name) with a name space 
qualified name "ns:name" results in an exception being thrown if the DOM 
element is a table.  It seems pretty  much a bug in IE because you can call 
getAttribute() on all of the table structure elements (TD, TR, etc.) and others 
(DIV, etc.)

The fix I put into place was to put a try catch around the calls to 
getAttribute() which eats the exception if it's thrown.  This is basically 
harmless because we will not set a idScope value on a table attribute.

> When walking the hierarchy, the call to getAttribute throws an exception when 
> a namespace is used on a <table> element in IE6.  The id scope is defined 
> with an attribute "netui:idScope".  This means calls to lookupIdScope() fails 
> with an exception.
