Hi There, I have been trying to integrate JQuery 1.3 into our software but found it breaking where I have previously successfully been using JQuery 1.2.6 to select xml nodes.
The following test page illustrates and explains the problem. To recreate the issue you would need to create a html file containing all of the following as well as an xml file named XMLFile.xml which returns the xml noted in the comments below as well as a copy of both JQuery 1.2.6 and 1.3 as named/referenced in the head below. Does anybody know whether this might be a bug, intended behaviour (these selectors still seem to be supported although I noted the @ symbol should now be removed from the attribute name which I have done) or something I need to change in my code for the latest JQuery version? Thanks, Chris TEST PAGE <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";> <head> <!--<script src="jquery_1.2.6.js" type="text/javascript"></ script>--> <script src="jquery_1.3.js" type="text/javascript"></script> </head> <body> Running this page with jquery 1.2.correctly performs the selection, 1.3 fails as noted below: <script type="text/javascript"> function successXml(data) { /* With JQuery 1.3 the following falls over.
