Description
This is really incredible and took me some time to find out !
Problem
Load the mockup in IE6 or IE7, you'll get "0" instead of "1" printed on the alert box.
Workaround
Don't set input name attributes to "length".
Mockup
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jquery.com/src/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() { alert($('INPUT').length) });
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input name="length">
</body>
</html>

I believe I finally tracked this down to the jQuery.merge method. The for loop in that method isn't running because the expression, second.length, points to the node instead of pointing to the size of the array.
