Error getting prefix for an attribute with no namespace
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: XERCESJ-1178
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1178
             Project: Xerces2-J
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: StAX
    Affects Versions: 2.8.0
            Reporter: Lucian Holland


The initialElementAttrs()  method of SAXXMLStreamReader sets the prefix of 
attributes to null if it finds no colon in the attribute name; the problem with 
this is that getAttributeNamespace() uses this prefix when looking up the 
namespace uri with a call to getNamespaceURI on the NamespaceContextImpl, and 
this method throws an IllegalArgumentException if null is passed in.
