I've discovered a bug in GivaLabs' Linkselect plugin , which occurs in IE9's compatibility modes (IE7 and IE9 compatibility view).

Line #347 should be patched as follows (new text added is marked in red):

1. var value = select.selectedIndex == -1 ? "" : select[select.selectedIndex][($.browser.msie && $.browser.version <= 7 && !( select[select.selectedIndex].attributes['value'] && select[select.selectedIndex].attributes['value'].specified)) ? "text" : "value"];

and line #376 in a similar fashion:

1. var value = $.browser.msie && $.browser.version <= 7 && !( this.attributes['value'] && this.attributes['value'].specified) ? this.text : this.value

because even if you put IE9 into compatibility mode, the attributes array is not populated to have value .
