JS中attr和prop属性的区别，以及优先选择

相比attr，prop是1.6.1才新出来的，两者从中文意思理解，都是获取/设置属性的方法（attributes和properties）。只是，window或document中使用.attr()方法在jQuery1.6之前不能正常运行，因为window和document中不能有attributes。prop应运而生了。

既然我们想知道他们两的区别，最好就看看他们的源代码，不要被代码长度所吓到，我们只看关键的几句：

attr: function( elem, name, value, pass ) {
    var ret, hooks, notxml,
        nType = elem.nodeType;
    // don't get/set attributes on text, comment and attribute nodes
    if ( !elem || nType === 3 || nType === 8 || nType === 2 ) {
        return;
    }
    if ( pass && jQuery.isFunction( jQuery.fn[ name ] ) ) {
        return jQuery( elem )[ name ]( value );
    }
    // Fallback to prop when attributes are not supported
    if ( typeof elem.getAttribute === "undefined" ) {
        return jQuery.prop( elem, name, value );
    }
    notxml = nType !== 1 || !jQuery.isXMLDoc( elem );
    // All attributes are lowercase
    // Grab necessary hook if one is defined
    if ( notxml ) {
        name = name.toLowerCase();
        hooks = jQuery.attrHooks[ name ] || ( rboolean.test( name ) ? boolHook : nodeHook );
    }
    if ( value !== undefined ) {
        if ( value === null ) {
            jQuery.removeAttr( elem, name );
            return;
        } else if ( hooks && "set" in hooks && notxml && (ret = hooks.set( elem, value, name )) !== undefined ) {
            return ret;
        } else {
            elem.setAttribute( name, value + "" );
            return value;
        }
    } else if ( hooks && "get" in hooks && notxml && (ret = hooks.get( elem, name )) !== null ) {
        return ret;
    } else {
        ret = elem.getAttribute( name );
        // Non-existent attributes return null, we normalize to undefined
        return ret === null ?
            undefined :
            ret;
    }
}

prop方法代码（jQuery版本1.8.3）

prop: function( elem, name, value ) {
    var ret, hooks, notxml,
        nType = elem.nodeType;
    // don't get/set properties on text, comment and attribute nodes
    if ( !elem || nType === 3 || nType === 8 || nType === 2 ) {
        return;
    }
    notxml = nType !== 1 || !jQuery.isXMLDoc( elem );
    if ( notxml ) {
        // Fix name and attach hooks
        name = jQuery.propFix[ name ] || name;
        hooks = jQuery.propHooks[ name ];
    }
    if ( value !== undefined ) {
        if ( hooks && "set" in hooks && (ret = hooks.set( elem, value, name )) !== undefined ) {
            return ret;
        } else {
            return ( elem[ name ] = v
