def get_attribute(self,attributeLocator):
return self.get_string("<STR_LIT>", [attributeLocator,])<EOL>
Gets the value of an element attribute. The value of the attribute may
differ across browsers (this is the case for the "style" attribute, for
example).

'attributeLocator' is an element locator followed by an @ sign and then the name of the attribute, e.g. "foo@bar"
