Ticket #945 (closed bug: fixed)

<INPUT name="length"> cannot be found under IE

Reported by: zimbatm@… Owned by:
Priority: minor Milestone: 1.1.3
Component: core Version: 1.1a
Keywords: ie6 ie7 Cc:
Blocking: Blocked by:

Description

This is really incredible and took me some time to find out !

Problem

Load the mockup in IE6 or IE7, you'll get "0" instead of "1" printed on the alert box.

Workaround

Don't set input name attributes to "length".

Mockup

<html>
  <head>  
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://jquery.com/src/jquery-latest.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      $(function() { alert($('INPUT').length) });
    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <input name="length">
  </body>
</html>

  • Priority changed from major to minor

I've setup a test page with firebug lite here:  http://brandon.jquery.com/testing/945/

I believe I finally tracked this down to the jQuery.merge method. The for loop in that method isn't running because the expression, second.length, points to the node instead of pointing to the size of the array.
