$('<input">').attr('type', 'checkbox');

This isn't working in IE, works in FF

As a workaround the following does work

$('<input type="checkbox">')

need: ReviewTest Case

The problem is that, in IE, you can't change the type of an input element once it's been created.

For this case no fix is available. Reason is microsofts read/write-once rule for input-elements.

You can 'ship' this problem, by using $('<input type="checkbox">') or generate the element manually.

tempVar = document.createElement('input');
tempVar.setAttribute('type', 'checkbox');
$('form').append(tempVar);

This doesn´t turn off the read/write-once-rule'''
