jquery selector strangeness -- is this a bug or am I doing it wrong?
<p>I'm getting inconsistant results across browsers with the following test:</p>

<p>============ test.html ===========</p>

<pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"&gt;

&lt;html lang="en"&gt;
&lt;head&gt;
        &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3/jquery.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/head&gt;
&lt;body&gt;
&lt;script&gt;

var xml;



$.ajax({
  type: "GET",
  url: "data.xml",
  success: function(data){
      var node = $("CI:first", data);
      var query1 = $("T TX", node).length;
      var query2 = $("T", node).find("TX").length;


      var msg = '$("T TX", node).length: ' + query1;
      msg += "\n";
      msg += '$("T", node).find("TX").length: ' + query2;
      alert(msg);
  }
});


&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>============ data.xml ===========</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-2"?&gt;
 &lt;CNs&gt;
   &lt;CI&gt;
     &lt;T&gt;
       &lt;TX&gt;&lt;/TX&gt;
     &lt;/T&gt;
   &lt;/CI&gt;
   &lt;CI&gt;
     &lt;T&gt;
       &lt;TX&gt;&lt;/TX&gt;
     &lt;/T&gt;
   &lt;/CI&gt;
   &lt;CI&gt;
     &lt;T&gt;
       &lt;TX&gt;&lt;/TX&gt;
     &lt;/T&gt;
   &lt;/CI&gt;
 &lt;/CNs&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>What should happen is this:</p>

<ul>
<li>Load xml via ajax call</li>
<li>select an xml node: <code>$("CI:first", data);</code></li>
<li>select a node within that node:  <code>$("T TX", node)</code></li>
<li>second selection should only come up with one "TX" tag</li>
</ul>

<p>However, in IE6 and IE8 (haven't tried IE7), the second selection seems to ignore the "node" context, and search the entire xml document. The test runs as expected in FireFox and Safari. Doing it this way works in IE <code>$("T", node).find("TX")</code>. Any explanations of why <code>$("T TX", node)</code> doesn't work in IE?</p>
