If it's being ignored that either means it's hard, it's not fun, or both. :)
Was the problem the .getAttribute(..., 2) in .attr()? That was probably put
in as a patch to the situation where IE fiddles with href attributes unless
you call it like .getAttribute('href', 2). Maybe you could just take out the
second argument as a workaround for now? It's worth a try.
Perhaps a permanent fix would be to only use the two-arg form of
getAttribute if it's one of the troublesome attributes like href. I guess
there is no way to know if we're working on an XML document?
