Attribute Ends With case-insensitive in some IE8

[[email protected]…]

Attribute Ends With Selector [name$="value"] is case-insensitive in some IE8 (Tested with IE8 v.8.0.6001.18702 on Windows Vista).

You can reproduce with this jsFiddle ​http://jsfiddle.net/jkDR8/. With my IE8, values for inputs "test1.value", "test2.value" and "testValue" are replaced with this script : jQuery("input[name$='value']").val("toto");

Only "test1.value" and "test2.value" should be replaced.

Confirmed. Fortunately, this particular querySelectorAll flaw seems to only affect the name attribute: ​http://jsfiddle.net/jkDR8/1/

Duplicate of #12024.
Case sensitivity affects many attributes (and not all of them). This is related to ​an existing Sizzle issue, which we will probably not fix as it requires maintaining a long list of attributes.

I suppose we could provide a smaller fix for the 2.x branch, but I'd be cautious about targeting specific 2.x issues in Sizzle.

This is distinct from #12024 because the root cause is not Sizzle code but the IE8 querySelectorAll that incorrectly matches <input name="LOWER"/> against "[name=lower]".

It is not distinct because even if we were to fix the result for IE8 (and I'd be surprised if name was the only attribute affected here), other browsers would continue to be inconsistent when it comes to case sensitivity and attributes. We could fix the name attribute across browsers if we see that attribute as more important than other attributes, but it seems like polishing the brass on the titanic if we're not going to tackle all of them.

Alright, well looking at it from the perspective of providing case-sensitivity for all attribute across browsers (which is useful but still technically wrong), I'm fine with fixing this.
