This problem also arises when using the form plugin. I thought it
would be easy to fix but it turns out that IE resolves options without
values to have a value identical to the empty string. That is, if
there is not a value attribute on the option element the following is
true in IE:
value === ""
and so is this:
$(...).attr('value') === ""
That is really unfortunate. If often use an empty string as the
value, like this:
<option value="">ALL</option>
and in that case I want the empty string posted, not the "ALL" text.
Programatically there doesn't seem to be a way to tell them apart in
IE. Anyone have any ideas?
