#6021 closed bug (worksforme)

IE7 + ID selector + HTML5 = fail

Description

I'm using an HTML5 "shiv" to document.createElement("nav") (along with the other HTML5 elements) so that Internet Explorer will recognize it, and I have a <nav id="mainnav"> block in my document.

In Internet Explorer 7, selectors don't work right on these new elements. For instance:

jQuery("nav").width() returns 960, jQuery("#mainnav").width() returns 960, but jQuery("nav#mainnav").width() returns null.

Works as intended in IE8 and WebKit.
