You may still have the problem because this.href !=
this.getAttribute('href'). Browsers put the resolved URL in the href
property, but for getAttribute('href') some return the source value,
some also the resolved value.
If jQuery uses getAttribute for its attribute selector - and that is
what I assume - than your filter will not work, since you say that
this.href == src, thus src must be an absolute url.
this.href == 'http://foo.com/bar' (resolved value)
src == 'http://foo.com/bar' (the value you put in)
getAttribute('href') == '/bar' != 'http://foo.com/bar' (this is what
jQuery looks for in your :not expression)
So with your expression jQuery tries to filter all the links for which
getAttribute('href') returns the value of your src variable without any
match if and only if the link in question is a relative link in your
html source.
