Wrong return for select type=

[mattprokes]

Punch this into a firefox, and ie6 js console please.

$.isArray($('<select type="pants"><option value="x">x</option><option value="y">y</option></select>').val())

FF = false IE6 = true

After much research, the problem lies with the select type having a set value. I am not sure if this problem happens in other ie browsers.

What is the doctype of your document? There is no type attribute in HTML4 at least:
