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

You're using unknown attribute hightlight. It's IE so it supports attributes according to its name (what's seems to be harder than supports every attribute name, but... it's IE).

Just use class="hightlight" - easier to implement and deal with.
