  Dohh, I just got pointed out that libxml HTML parser actually
didn't convert the attributes to lower case. It's really suprizing
I didn't noticed this earlier. This is the reason why your colleague
had this problem I assume.
  I commited the very simple fix (calling htmlParseHTMLName instead of
htmlParseName at the beginning of htmlParseAttribute).

  I hope this change won't cause troubles to people already using
the HTML parser I really intended to convert those to lowercase from
the start (like for element names).
