Description
This
$('td.points[data-points=11.5]')
works fine. This doesn't
$('.points[data-points=11.5]')
Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [data-points=11.5]
tried in page and in Chrome console. Why would it be necessary to provide tag name? I believe this is a bug. http://jsfiddle.net/4D5HL/12/

From the attribute selector docs:
You either need to quote it or escape the dot in the attribute value.
Example: [data-points="11.5"] or [data-points=11\.5] The former is preferred.
