I wouldn't really say it solves the problem... more like it avoids the problem :) An <option> tag with no value attribute is perfectly acceptable, and should be handled correctly. Unfortunately it's not trivial to handle in IE because there are several cases that need to be considered. If core jQuery gets it wrong, I think it would be better to remove the functionality or error out rather than return the wrong value. It would take extra bytes to make it work correctly, but IMO it is worth it. Matt Kruse
