Attribute selectors, JavaScript and IE8

Question

I\'m attempting to use attribute selectors and CSS for formatting elements.

The HTML looks like:

User Name         


        
      

Answer 1

to avoid inevitable cross-browser compatibility issue's with javascript/css I would recommend using jQuery.

For example, to highlight an element via the jQuery framework this is all that it takes...

$("div").click(function () {
      $(this).effect("highlight", {}, 3000);
});
