On FF3 the binding of events together with a namespace fails.

The events are registered but the namespace is lost.

The error happens in the jQuery.js on line 1871.

Code:

 // Namespaced event handlers
 var parts = type.split(".");
 type = parts[0];
 handler.type = parts[1];

This part fails: handler.type = parts[1];

The type is not registered correctly. If you check it in firebug with console.log(handler.type); it seems correct, but if you check later events[type][handler.guid] firebug displays the object and the parameter "type" - but the parameter is undefined. Same thing happens then in the unbind() method and so the namespace is "useless" (for example the reacitvate of the links after close a modal ui.dialog fails)

A workaround for that issue is this:

 handler = jQuery.extend(handler,{ type: parts[1] });

I think this Overhead generates some overhead, so better fix would be nice.

Cheers,

Peter
