Description
In <area>-tags the shape-attribute is not recognised by .attr()
Deleting areas with no shapes doesn't work:
focusable = focusable.map(function(){return($(this).attr('shape') === undefined && $(this).is('area')) ? null : this;});
Deleting areas with no href works:
focusable = focusable.map(function(){return($(this).attr('href') === undefined && $(this).is('area')) ? null : this;});

BACKGROUND-INFORMATION
- Consider a plugin that emulates TAB-keyboard-navigation by the user, i.e. a plugin that is able to set the focus to the next element in the tab-order (given a certain block-element, a focusable inline-element)
- "focusable" is a set of jQuery objects which was retrived by a .find() operation
- According to http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/editing.html#focus, especially "7.3.2 Focus management", <area>-tags which have no shape-attribute are regarded as 'not focusable'.
THE POTENTIAL BUG
Deleting areas with a missing shape attribute from the list of focusable jQuery object doesn't work:
focusable = focusable.map(function(){return($(this).attr('shape') === undefined && $(this).is('area')) ? null : this;});
If you do (just for the sake of testing) the same with missing href-attributes, the code works perfectly (however I don't need hrefs, but shapes!!):
focusable = focusable.map(function(){return($(this).attr('href') === undefined && $(this).is('area')) ? null : this;});

Replying to [comment:3 addyosmani]:
#7907 is a duplicate of this ticket.
!!! ATTENTION !!!
#7907 says that .focus() does not work with <area> (but should according to w3c). This ticket says that I can work with areas ( .attr() works in some way), but .attr() recognises only 'href' and not 'shape'. So it's not a REAL dublicate. However both bugs (without having looked at the jQuery code) maybe interrelated (maybe in so far that <area> and its attributes are poorly supported).
Therefore: When fixing this, please consider both use-cases.

Despite the information you've added...
Please provide a reduced jsFiddle test case, using the latest stable jQuery release and the jQuery 0 GIT version to ensure the issue still exists.
Part of creating a reduced test case helps us determine how to proceed with addressing the bug.
