Description
This code fails:
$('[xml:lang="nl"]');
While this works:
$('[id="someID"]');
I needed this because when validating the html attribute lang="", the validator tells me I need xml:lang="".

In 1.3.0 when escaping the colon the backslash isn't removed from match[1]. Looks like the same as #3803.

jQuery 1.3.1 - I am still unable to use a selector for attributes with : in their name, such as in namespaced attributes.
Here is a simple testcase:
<a href="somewhere.html" test:ajax="json">test</a>
$('a[test\\\\:ajax]')
No elements matched.

I am using jQuery 1.3.2 and this works fine in Firefox, but fails in IE (tested using IE 7).
Example: <div my:tooltip="Show this"></div>
jQuery: $('div[my\\\\:tooltip]')
IE error: "Object doesn't support this property or method"

I've had a quick look at it and it seems like the ATTR prefilter removes the backslash but it appears again in filter.ATTR! Moreover, if you call $('div[my\\\\:tooltip]') instead of $('div[my\\\\:tooltip="Show this"]') then filter.ATTR isn't even called, is that OK?

Did you try escaping the colon?
