Description
Code
$("div.messageControlBar > input[value=Assign To]").live("click", AssignToShow);
Exception throw is Uncaught Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [value=Assign To] at line 3583.
It doesnt seem to allow the [value=Assign To] however it worked with previous versions of jQuery.

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project by writing a bug report.
This isn't a bug. Your selector isn't and never was valid, if this worked in earlier jQuery version it was actually a bug that got fixed.
Check this test case which shows that your selector isn't a valid CSS selector and that you need to enclose the attribute value in quotes. So that I don't need to repeat my self also check this comment
Created a item in jsFiddle where you can see v1.4.4 works changing the button to red, but in v1.5, it doesn't
