incorrect return from selector

[shalanga@…]

Error reproduced: ​http://jsfiddle.net/tjuxu/

incorrect elements are returned from selector

html to test: <input type="text" class="input_normal" value="xxx" id="busca" name="busca" /> <INPUT TYPE="text" name="oi[]" id="la" value="meu valor" />

selector used: $('input[name=oi
[
]]').val()

expected return: only the second input

what is returned: all elements...

work around: Change the selector from: $('input[name=oi
[
]]') to: $('input[name=^oi]').val()

Works for me: ​http://jsfiddle.net/tjuxu/1/

Check again: the first "input" must not be selected. Because the name do not match the selector string.

Output is: "xxx" and "works!" But should be: "works!".

It means "xxx" should not come.

[gibson042]

You have misunderstood something, because the "works!" is placed on all inputs matching the selector (just the one with name "oi[]") and the "xxx" comes from the value you specified. There is no jQuery bug here; please ask for help on the forums or StackOverflow.

Indeed.

Thanks for the feedback.

I'll check it.
