Given a document like this:

How can I read the xml:lang attribute using jquery? I can query for elements that have xml:lang like this:
$('[xml\\:lang]')
but I don’t know how to get the attribute itself. attr('lang') and attr('xml\\:lang') don’t work. I’ve a jsfiddle showing this here.
:has only to be escaped in selectors, since they indicate the start of pseudo selectors. As attribute name you don’t have to escape it:works fine.
