Description

Create iframe element with jQuery(1.6.2) -without name attribute - and then set name attribute with attr().

If there is form element with target set to name of that iframe, submitting form does not work properly (it opens new window) istead of opening result in that iframe.

I don't add jsfiddle code because it works properly.

It looks like it's because iframe is created with attribute submitName="something" istead name="something"

(see also ticket #8418)

Thanks for submitting a bug report, but we'll need some form of test case to reproduce this - either on jsFiddle or an uploaded file (ideally the former, but I read your note regarding it working fine there). Please also ensure you test with jQuery git/edge to ensure its broken there too.

simple test case

Click lower button and everything is as expected but when you click first button another window is opened.

I've added your code here to test and it seems to work fine: http://jsfiddle.net/timmywil/PBUBV/1/show

You'r right :-) at jsfiddle it works properly - as I wrote in description.

From what i know now case with:

#!js
$('<iframe></iframe>').attr({'name' : 'iframe1'});

can't be solved because in IE7 it's not possible to add name attribute after creating node, that's why submitName attribute is set.

But the case with:

#!js
$('<iframe></iframe>', {'name': 'iframe4'});

can be solved by firstly creating string

#!text/html
<iframe name='iframe4'></iframe>

and creating node from that html string. But it looks like jQ does the same in both cases. Firstly it creates node and then attributes are set.
