dojox/mobile/parser ie8 input type bug

[superdweebie]

I'm using the dojox/mobile/parser because is it much smaller than the standard dojo/parser, as suggested in the docs. However, ie8 will throw an error on any attempt to set the type attribute on an input tag, which the parser does attempt to do. It seems to be a simple fix. Change line 58 from:

if(!v && (t !== "boolean"

v !== "")){ continue; }

to:

if((!v && (t !== "boolean"

v !== ""))

prop == 'type'){ continue; }

I have unsuccessfully tried to reproduce. I have tried in IE8 from both Dojo 1.8.3 and current trunk with dojox/mobile/tests/test_ComboBox-sv.html (which contains <input type="text" data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.ComboBox" ...>), and by modifying tests/test_FormControl.html to add a type attribute to the <input data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.SearchBox" ...>. Both tests use the mobile parser, however I did not get any error. I didn't get an error with <input type="text"> either.

Could you submit a runnable test case to reproduce?

Also, the code that you suggested:

if((!v && (t !== "boolean"
v !== "")) 	prop == 'type'){ continue; } 

is syntactically not correct, I guess it was corrupted during copy-paste.
