When you set the value of an input element using .val() (or elem.value), you are updating a DOM property, not an HTML attribute. This issue comes up frequently. As to just why .val() is so anomalous, I cannot provide a great answer at the moment. I am not sure if this is something that is "fixable" with jQuery or if it is an issue inherent to this particular property. Perhaps someone else can provide some illumination?
