The following line returns 'select-one' in IE6 and 'undefined' in Firefox 2.0.0.3.
$( "#Province" ).attr( "type" ) <select name="Province" id="Province"> <option>Ontario <option>Alberta <option>Nova Scotia </select> I get the same results in jQuery 1.1.2 and 1.1.3a releases. Is this is a bug? If I use document.getElementById("Province").type I get the 'select-one' value in Firefox.
