Selecting by [nodeName] finds nothing in 1.7

[drew.wells00@…]

The syntax being discussed here is performing a find on a jQuery wrapped document.

var xml = "<doc><dsp></dsp></doc>",
    $xml = $( $.parseXML( xml ) );

$xml.find('[nodeName=dsp]');

Tests in:

1.6.4 (works): ​http://jsfiddle.net/vZkUH/

1.7.0: ​http://jsfiddle.net/xABKx/1/

edge: ​http://jsfiddle.net/fmWHj/1/

I repeated these tests with localName and got the same results. Perhaps there is a simple solution to workaround this.

It was a bug that it worked before. The XML does not have a nodeName attribute. See the dup ticket for solutions.
