title: Can I use JavaScript to set the 'name' attribute?
body: <p>According to <a href="http://reference.sitepoint.com/javascript/Element/setAttribute" rel="noreferrer">SitePoint</a> (and my own experiments), the IE implementation of "setAttribute()" is buggy and unreliable.</p>
  
  <p>Also according to <a href="http://reference.sitepoint.com/javascript/Attr/name" rel="noreferrer">SitePoint</a>, the <code>name</code> attribute is read-only.</p>
  
  <p>Is there another way I can set the <code>name</code> attributes on elements?  I need this for use with radio buttons.  If possible, I'd like a solution without jQuery, as I'm currently not using the library.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
