[jQuery] update input name

[oscar esp]

I have a code to clone a input.  After that I need to change the id
and name it... seems that change id works fine but not the name:

 jQuery("#"+inputID,addedItem).attr("id",newInputID); -> works ok
 jQuery("#"+inputID,addedItem).attr("name",newInputID); -> seems
doesn't work

Any idea?
