I am trying to create a button using jquery. I use the following code

jquery('<button/>', {type:'button'}).text(name)

However this works in Safari , FF IE8 but not IE7

i tried to use the attr function :

jquery('<button/>').attr('type','button').text(name)

this does not work either.

any ideas what would work? I suppose if I don't assign a type it would default to button but i rather do that

thanks for your help
