Description

The following code works fine in jQuery 1.7.2 and Firefox 3.6. It is broken with jQuery 1.8.0:

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
  <head>
    <script type='text/javascript' src='jquery-1.8.0.min.js'></script>
    
  </head>
  
  <body>
  
    <div id='ul_div'>
      <ul>
        <li>item 1</li>
        <li>item 2</li>
        <li>item 3</li>
      </ul>
     </div>

    <script>
      alert($("#ul_div").children("ul:eq(0)").html());
    </script>
    
  </body>
</html>

Firefox 3.6 is no longer supported by Mozilla, meaning it is risky to continue its use because no security patches are being issued for example. jQuery has dropped support for Firefox 3.6 as well in 1.8. The Sizzle selector engine still has support for 3.6 so I'll leave this open, but if you encounter bugs in other jQuery subsystems with 3.6 they're unlikely to be fixed.
