I've noticed that after a upgrade to the latest version of jquery (1.7.1) that the following code no longer evalulates
if( $('#item').attr('checked') === true ){
//do something
}
I sort of understand why they may have made this change but does anyone have a link to documentation of why they have done this? I want to ensure my code works correctly.. and it seems that maybe I have been incorrectly using the above for quite a while.
