<p>I have a very strange problem. Under some elusive circumstances I fail to apply any jQuery selector on my pages under IE. It's OK under Firefox though. The jQuery function simply returns empty array. </p>

<p>Any suggestions?</p>

<p>Page is too complex to post it here. Practically any selector, except <code>"#id"</code> selectors, returns a zero element array. The jQuery version is 1.2.3</p>

Is it failing for a specific complex selector? I think we need an example.</p>\n\n<p>Edit: Does the problem go away if you upgrade to 1.2.6? 1.2.6 is primarily a bug-fix release according to <a href="http://docs.jquery.com/Release:jQuery_1.2.6" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this page</a>.</p>\n\n<p>Failing that, the best way to find the problem is to create a minimum page that can reproduce the bug. Without that, it\'s just about impossible to troubleshoot.</p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 40257, 'author': 'RedWolves', 'author_id': 648, 'author_profile': 'https://Stackoverflow.com/users/648', 'pm_score': 3, 'selected': True, 'text': '<p>Try upgrading to jQuery 1.2.6, you should be on the latest release of jQuery if you are having problems first ensure you are on the latest and greatest.</p>\n'}]
