 From the jquery docs I can see that the recommended way of doing  
this is $('#element').val(). I don't know if that will give you  
anything different, but it does seem odd that it doesn't distinguish  
between undefined and an empty string.

You're missing quotes around your attribute values, but you probably  
knew that.
