Since, upgrading to JQuery 1.5, the following selector no longer works:

var selectedTab = $('div.menu > ul > li > a[href=service.html]');

uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [href=service.html]

Is this a bug in the latest version of JQuery or (much more likely) a dormant bug in my code?

    $('div.menu > ul > li > a[href="service.html"]')
