    <thetext>Section 4.5.5 of the Web IDL, http://www.w3.org/TR/WebIDL/#es-attributes, states that 

    &quot;For each attribute defined on the interface, there must exist 
     a corresponding property. If the attribute was declared with 
     the [Unforgeable] extended attribute, then the property exists 
     on every object that implements the interface. Otherwise, it 
     exists on the interface’s interface prototype object.&quot;

WebKit, however, appears to define these as instance properties.  This introduces several incompatibilities, such as checking own properties or getting property descriptors.  For a specific example, In WebKit and Presto:

    &gt; document.body.hasOwnProperty(&quot;style&quot;)
    // -&gt; true

In Trident and Gecko:

    &gt; document.body.hasOwnProperty(&quot;style&quot;)
    // -&gt; false</thetext>
