 Ok, this fixes one problem, but a further error occurs on line 641:
 
   return elem.getAttribute( name, 2 );
 
 It appears that the getAttribute method on XML elements only accepts
 a single argument:
 
   return elem.getAttribute( name );
 
  From the MS docs the second argument of 2 forces the method to be
 case-sensitive, which if I'm correct, isn't required by any browser
 other than IE. So is it possible to detect whether the browser is IE
 and the document is an HTML doc - in which case use the two args method,
 otherwise call with just one arg.

Sorry, I got this wrong - it doesn't force case sensitive.

According to the docs:
2 - Returns the value exactly as it was set in script or in the source 
document.

Now I'm even more confused, what else would it return?

[jQuery] XPath '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' doesn't work on XML documents

2006-09-08 Thread Mark Gibson 

Hello,
I've come across a strange bug in IE:

I've loaded an XML doc using $.get(), and
selecting nodes using an XPath with a predicate
containing an attribute: $([EMAIL PROTECTED], xml)

IE just throws a wobbly:

   Line: 639
   Error: Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment

which appears to reside in the 'attr' function, the line is:

} else if ( elem.getAttribute ) {

as you see the message is a bit vague, i don't see a function
call here or an attempt at assigning a property!

I've attached demonstration files html/js/xml.
(.js renamed to .jsx - as the mail server rejected it!!!)

BTW, this works fine in Firefox, what a surprise! ;)

Cheers

Still waiting for resolution - don't know if I need to raise a bug report...

Just a hunch, but IE's DOM support isn't native Javascript. If they got
their typelib wrong it may be trying to call getAttribute rather than check
elem for a getAttribute property. Can you replace that last line with this
and see if it works?

} else if ( typeof(elem.getAttribute) != undefined ) {

I just committed this to SVN.
