title: jQuery simple value get issue with .val()
body: <p>I have the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('.document').ready(function(){
     alert($('font.someClass').val());
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is a <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/2wwzD/1/" rel="nofollow">Fiddle</a> with it.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know why I can not return the value of a font tag?</p>
  
  <p>Am I to assume that you are not allowed to call the value or set the value of a font tag.</p>
