next adjacent selector and/or child selector in IE6

[Timmy Willison]

I'm sorry I can't provide a test case. I need to leave the fixed version on our dev sites. But I can change the code back and forth. I'm sure it would be easy to create a test case. You can tell what the structure of my DOM is from the following code (glass-top is a select element, breed is an input element elsewhere on the page, and everything below is contained inside a div). Like so:

Markup: <div>

<select id="glass-top"/> <input/> <span/> <ul>

<li/>

</ul>

</div>

Original JS (works in all browsers except IE6): showHideBreed : function() {

$('#breed').hide(); $('#glass-top + input + span + ul > li').click(function() {

if($(this).attr('value') == 410) {

$('#breed').show();

} else {

$('#breed').hide();

}

});

}

Working JS: showHideBreed : function() {

$('#breed').hide(); $('#glass-top').next().next().next('ul').find('li').click(function() {

if($(this).attr('value') == 410) {

$('#breed').show();

} else {

$('#breed').hide();

}

});

}

I just thought you should know. It's possible that using the '+' selector multiple times in a row is causing problems in IE6? I'm not sure. I don't think the '>' child selector is the culprit because I tried replacing just that with find('li') and got the same result. I haven't looked at the jQuery source yet, but I thought I should go ahead and make the ticket.

Thanks guys, Timmy

Next Adjacent Selector Fails IE6 and IE7

[roydukkey]

I too have found this bug and can add some useful information. Attached is a test case.

It seems that in $("#btnAPI + ul li a") the next adjacent selector is failing in ie6 and ie7. However, if you try to select the element via the next() and find() functions, all is well. ie. $("#btnAPI").next("ul").find("li a").

The next adjacent selection was working in version 1.3.2.

Resetting milestone to future.

​test case also problematic in ie7, so a problem with Sizzle.

[danheberden]

Still present in ie6 and ie7 in 1.5.2pre
