Description

Here is the markup and code that causes the error:

<div id="contentwrapper">
  <div id="foo">
    <form>
      <input type="radio" name="id"  />
    </form>
  </div>

  <script type="text/javascript">
    var container = jQuery ("#contentwrapper");
    jQuery ("[id^=fo]", container);
  </script>
</div>

Using a more specific selector such as

"div[id^=fo]"

works fine.

Granted having the value of name being 'id' is not wise but jQuery should likely handle the case.

What version of jQuery are you using ?

If not 1.2.6, then update and recheck please.

Do come back to us after you try.

I tried this with 1.2.6 and the error still occurs.

I'm getting this issue with a hidden input field with the name "action". Upgrading to 1.2.6 doesn't solve the issue.

Duplicate of #3113. Don't use input names that match form properties like length, action, id, name, etc.
