Issue With IE8 and pseudo tags.

Description

I added a tag to my DTD called pseudo.

Given a tag such as:

<pseudo checkbox="Y" />

and try to execute:

$("pseudo[checkbox=Y]").append("<input type='checkbox' />");

it works like it should in FF3 but nothing in IE8

Checking $("pseudo[checkbox=Y]").length FF is reporting 1 and IE is reporting 0.

IE8 parses HTML. If it doesn't recognize the tag you won't get consistent results. See this article and the links in it for more info:
