[type=select-one] selector is broken

[anonymous]

In earlier versions of jquery, before 1.5.0, the following would return true for normal select-one elements:

$(select_element).is('[type=select-one]')

Since 1.5.0, including 1.5.1, this is broken. Note that I have verified that:

$(select_element).attr('type') == 'select-one'

Please quote the attribute since it contains special characters. If there are still problems, please provide a link to a test case in jsFiddle.

As per dmethvin, this works fine when you quote the attribute (which we do mention as being necessary for special character use in our docs). Confirmed here ​http://jsfiddle.net/addyosmani/Ldjap/1/ as working.

Please reopen.

Even properly quoted selectors that include type="select-one" fail for <SELECT> elements. For example: $('select[type="select-one"]');

You're mistaking DOM properties with HTML element attributes
