[jQuery] Why does this jquery operation still bind to the submit button?


I'm confused why the bind to the submit button still takes place with:
jQuery(":input[@type != 'submit']",
document.preAssessmentForm ).change( function()
{ setConfirmUnload(true); } );
this selector works fine (the 'submit' isn't selected which I can tell
by iterating over the selection and printing out everything ) but yet
the bind to the submit button is still occurring.
