Set "name" attribute using attr doesn't work on IE 8

[[email protected]…]

Hi! This code:

	//Getting the checkbox
	var checkbox = $row.find(':checkbox');
	//Change the checkbox id and name
	checkbox.attr('id', 'disassociate-questions');
	checkbox.attr('name', 'disassociate-questions');
	var row_html_to_add = $row.html();
	alert("Row html: " + row_html_to_add);

Alerts only id attribute changed to the new value. The attribute name doesn't change on IE8. In Chrome and Firefox it works correctly.

Regards. Carlos Eugênio.

Thanks for taking the time to make a bug report! Please make sure you've follow the steps outlined in our bug reporting guide ( ​http://docs.jquery.com/How_to_Report_Bugs ) which includes making a distilled, runnable test-case on jsfiddle.net.

Looking forward to seeing the demo of your bug.

Went ahead and made a test case: works fine in IE8 (7, and 6 too) and chrome, etc .

Hope this helps narrow down your problem. I suspect there is an error in your app somewhere.

Sorry for not have seen the the bug reporting guide before. Nevertheless, I couldn't reproduce in jsfiddle either. I will double check what might have happened here.

Thanks for the time.
