Selectors don't work properly on Chrome

[David]

Hi,

We're having major issues with selectors and how they work in Chrome.

:nth-child(x) does not seem to be working properly always.

Please have a look at forum topic ​http://forum.jquery.com/topic/chrome-issue-appendto-does-not-work-on-select#14737000002472463 which also provides links to jsFiddle demos...

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project! Please be more specific and provide a reduced failing test case without the unnecessary ajax code so that we can see the issue intended for review.

Here is a test case to get started, but the selectors I tried work fine: ​http://jsfiddle.net/timmywil/Rp5Lp/6/

Hi Timmy,

This will probably illustrate more what my issue is:

Please let me know if this is unclear still...

[timmywil]

Confirmed.

Hi Timmy,

Just so I know - I noticed this was tagged as low priority (I don't want to interfere with those evaluations, as you probably do have more important bugs to attend to...)

However - what timeframe should I be looking at for a fix for this issue?

It might get tackled in 1.7, but probably not until then.

There have been a number of issues regarding :nth-child() usage in WebKit - it sounds like they're working to fix them and should be coming soon.
