Description

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 getNetuiTagName() fails with an exception.

I'll fix this with a try/catch in the same way that BEEHIVE-475 was fixed... eat the exception and go forward. See revision 159436.

I will also update the test case, J475, to include a call to getNetuiTagName().
