Adam's test is correct -- even dynamically-set ID attributes will still be picked up by readAttribute in IE. As for the difference between $('*').detect and $('*[id=foo]'): the second is much faster in IE. The first must past each element on the page through Element.extend. The second will extend only the matched element. I suggest using Element.down, since it always returns one node: return $(document.body).down('*[id=foo]'); Cheers, Andrew --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype: Core" group.
