Microsoft is being a little optimistic here. The "for" attribute is
*not* defined in W3C DOM 2 DOM. It is an HTML attribute for label
elements (the associated DOM property is called "htmlFor" since "for"
is a keyword in most languages). There is no "for" attribute for script
tags in HTML, and no similar property on DOM script elements.
