Using a standing light wave trap, a stable quasi-one-dimensional attractive dilute-gas BoseEinstein condensate can be realized. In a mean-field approximation, this phenomenon is modeled by the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with attractive nonlinearity and an elliptic function potential of which a standing light wave is a special case. New families of stationary solutions are presented. Some of these solutions have neither an analog in the linear Schrödinger equation nor in the integrable nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Their stability is examined using analytic and numerical methods. Trivial-phase solutions are experimentally stable provided they have nodes and their density is localized in the troughs of the potential. Stable time-periodic solutions are also examined.
