removeAttribute Method

Removes the given attribute from the object.

Syntax

bSuccess = object.removeAttribute(sName [, iCaseSensitive])

Parameters

sName	Required. String that specifies the attribute name.
iCaseSensitive	Optional. Integer that specifies whether to use a case-sensitive search to locate the attribute. By default, this value is set to 1 to indicate that the uppercase and lowercase letters in the specified sName parameter must exactly match those in the attribute name. If there are multiple attributes specified with different case sensitivity, the attribute returned might vary across platforms.

Return Value

Boolean. Returns true if successful, or false otherwise.

Remarks

If two or more attributes have the same name—differing only in uppercase and lowercase letters—and iCaseSensitive is set to 0, this method removes only the last attribute to be created with this name. All other attributes of the same name are ignored.
