Description

See here for an example that shows it working in IE9+, but failing in IE8:

http://jsfiddle.net/daemonic/7yHu3/

Happens in 1.10.1 and 1.10.2.

In IE 7,9 and 10, it returns 1 item matching the ID

In IE8, it 2 items matching the ID

If you switch it to use jquery 1.9.1, it returns 1 in all versions of the browser.

I observe the expected results in all versions of Internet Explorer on BrowserStack. Have you disabled all extensions to confirm behavior?

After double checking the machine, it turns out it had the RC1 (as did the other machine I was testing against). Testing it on a third machine with release version of IE8 worked fine.

We can close this, since upgrading the actual final version of IE8 solves the problem.
