.
.attributes is a collection of all attribute nodes registered to the specified node. It is a NamedNodeMap,not an Array, so it has no Array methods and the Attr nodes' indexes may differ among browsers. To be more specific, attribute is a key value pair of strings that represents any information regarding that node; it cannot hold Object. Attribute can hold additional data/information that is required while processing custom JavaScript. There are many predefined attributes for different nodes used for binding events, validations, and specifying layout informations that are handled by browser (may vary from browser to browser).

innerHTML sets or gets the HTML syntax describing the element's descendants.
Note: If a <div>, <span>, or <noembed> node has a child text node that includes the characters (&), (<), or (>), innerHTML returns these characters as &, < and > respectively. Use Node.textContent to get a correct copy of these text nodes' contents.

The Node.
The Node.isSupported() returns a Boolean flag containing the result of a test whether the DOM implementation implements a specific feature and this feature is supported by the specific node.
MDN
Returns a DOMString representing the local part of the qualified name of an element.
Returns a DOMString representing the local part of the qualified name of an element. In Firefox 3.5 and earlier, the property upper-cases the local name for HTML elements (but not XHTML elements). In later versions, this does not happen, so the property is in lower case for both HTML and XHTML. Though the specification requires localName to be defined on the Node interface, Gecko-based browsers implement it on the Element interface.
MDN
Returns a DOMString containing the name of the Node.
Returns a DOMString containing the name of the Node. The structure of the name will differ with the name type. E.g. An HTMLElement will contain the name of the corresponding tag, like 'audio' for an HTMLAudioElement, a Text node will have the '#text' string, or a Document node will have the '#document' string.
MDN
The read-only Node.
The read-only Node.nodeType property returns an unsigned short integer representing the type of the node.
MDN
