@John: I found a little bug in your v1.3.3 test version... This selector works fine in FireFox, but bombs out in IE7...
$("#div50 p") IE7 --> "Object doesn't support this property or method" But this works fine: $("#div50 > p") NOTE that I'm pulling v1.3.3 directly from your personal copy (jquery1.3.3/dist/jquery.js). I realize this is just a test version, but thought you'd like to know. /Kevin On Feb 25, 4:21 pm, John Resig <jere...@gmail.com> wrote: > > WOW! Check out the last 2 tests, John.
