jQuery.each on object with length element.

[jakecigar@…]

I think jQuery.each should check for length to be present and an integer, rather than just checking for it’s existance.

The innocent Object { "length":"33", "text":"foo" } can’t be used with $.each.

Duplicate of #7260.

Honestly, I think doing this would just confuse things more.

I realize a 'fix' would not work for everybody. But a new function $.foreach and deprecating $.each might be doable.

We have so many JSON users who could be bitten by this 'bug'

You said it yourself, a "fix" wouldn't work for everybody. The trick here is that you should probably not use words like "length" or "nodeType" as properties of your object.
