I found that certain selectors work in all browsers except IE 8 and they need to modified.
This selector pattern seem to work well in all browsers, including IE
8:
jQuery("input[class='class_name'][type='text']")
But this identical selector works in Firefox, Safari but not in IE 8:
jQuery("input.class_name:text")
In IE 8 it returns a "property not found" javascript runtime error.
I don't know whether that the actual issue or if it is a side effect
of some memory leak.
