Selector is now unrecognized

Description

I have found this error in Firefox 3.6 under Ubuntu:

using jQuery 1.4.2 this selector works: jQuery('select[name=[time]]')

but after updating to jQuery 1.5.2 it rises the following error: uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [name=[time]]

I'm pretty sure it's jQuery's version the only problem here because if I switch back to 1.4.2 it works again.

Hope this helps.

_comment0: Even though it worked in jQuery 1.4.2, that is an invalid selector. This has been fixed in jQuery 1.5. Use quotes instead of brackets for check the value of an attribute: http://api.jquery.com/attribute-equals-selector/1302273510280730
