Hi, Sorry, that list should have been:
Using 1.6.1 and "=", works: http://jsbin.com/ewire5/ Using 1.7 and "=", doesn't work: http://jsbin.com/ewire5/2 Using 1.7 and "$=", works: http://jsbin.com/ewire5/3 I'm sure everyone figured that out. And this may be of interest: http://jsbin.com/ewire5/4 My guess is that the old engine used `getAttribute('src')` and/or `readAttribute('src')`, but the new engine uses `src` directly. The old behavior is probably more correct; the new behavior may be more useful though... ;-) -- T.J. On Mar 10, 3:00 pm, "T.J.
