Oh..... When I download the jQuery cheat sheets it said that it was supported. Could be a mistake on their part. Is there anyway for this support to go into 1.1.3 :) It's actually is really useful. For those of us that program in CF, I can't count the amount of times I've used the ListFind function and this selector is exactly like it.

Subject: Re: [jQuery] .attr("href", "javascript:void(0);") not working That's correct. jQuery does not support the ~= selector. You can find it located here: http://docs.jquery.com/Selectors#Not_supported It wasn't listed in the list of supported selectors - but I just added it to the list of "Not Supported" selectors, to make it clear. --John On 2/28/07, Petruzzi, Tony <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I figured it out.
