Javascript AppendChild Name Property

So I'm trying to add attributes to a radio button input, specifically the name attribute in Javascript. I'm appending children to a main object and when I use Object.setAttribute('

Solution 1:

Here's a workaround for dealing with IE:

Essentially, the method used is to create the elements on the fly instead of modifying existing elements.

Solution 2:

In IE, you cannot add a name attribute on dynamically created objects.

I suggest using id if unique, or a class if not.
