Adding document.querySelectorAll support to IE 7

[BillyRayPreachersSon]

After battling with an existing JavaScript solutions to add document.querySelectorAll support to IE 7 and finding it failed on several counts, I've come up with a revised script that seemed to be more bullet-proof, at least for the selectors I was throwing it:

document.querySelectorAll('label[for="postContent"], label[for="threadContent"]');

I've documented the problems I faced with the existing code, as well as a nice IE 7 "gotcha" with the "for" attribute that I hadn't expected.

The final code (still small at 274 bytes) can be found at [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.codecouch.com/2012/05/adding-document-queryselectorall-support-to-ie-7/[/url]
