I think this is actually a bug with Sizzle.matches, see my pull request here: ​https://github.com/jeresig/sizzle/pull/54

I also opened a pull request with some regression tests for jQuery: ​https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/288

This is a duplicate of ​http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/7369 and has been fixed in the recent changes to sizzle.

[murz]

I'm not sure this is a dupe of that bug, and my regression tests still fail in the most recent version of Sizzle.

Also, it looks like the Sizzle repo just moved so my pull request is now here: ​https://github.com/jquery/sizzle/pull/54

[Timmy Willison]

No it's not. Sorry, I didn't update my comment.

I closed [pull 288](​https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/288) from murz to clear out clutter but please include them in the patch if they are useful.

A selector with an attribute with no value seems to be the heart of multiple selector bugs.
