#12726 closed bug (duplicate)

is(':active') reports false even if button is active

Reported by: a@… Owned by:

Component: selector Version: 1.8.2

Description

is(':active') will report false for button in active state. $('*:active') will still select this element as active. Workaround: use $('*:active').filter(el).length > 0 instead of $(el).is(:active).

In code: el.is(':active') == $('*:active').filter(el).length > 0; should always be true. It is not.

Confirmed. There is a bigger issue with :active here.

I think we should look into alternate implementations (possibly including an event) for this selector in 1.9.

Porting this to Sizzle issue.
