I was trying to make a "one size fits all" method for dynamic height resizing (by hiding the element I was resizing and then comparing parent height to parent's parent height) when I noticed that .height() (and .outerHeight(true)) were failing to return the correct value.

For the sake of simplicity, we'll call the elements a > b > c > d, e (with d & e being siblings)

a is a fixed height element (height: 640px) (no padding/margin) b is a fixed height element (positioned absolutely to top,right,bottom,left: 20px, no padding/margin - so is height: 600px by inference) c is a variable height element (no padding/margin) d is a fixed height element (height: 10px) (no padding, has 20px total vertical margin) e is a fixed height element (element to be resized) (no padding/margin)

If I hide e, then do b.height() - c.height() then it should return 570px as the height of d should be stretching the height of c to 30px, however what is actually being returned is 590px.

The same happens if I call b.height() - c.outerHeight(true)

I use this $("#[id^{='lbl']").html(""); for validation of forms on mandatory fields, this command use for reset error labels that there ID begin with 'lbl'. I debug my project and got this error: "Microsoft JScript runtime error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #[id}='lbl']" The bug exists on version 1.8.0 but not on version 1.7.2

On version 1.7.2 I work as always work with my forms
