Description
In IE8, the value of: $('<span class="value">').text('text!').length is 0
In other browsers, $('<span class="value">').text('text!').length is 1
It works correctly if you do not specify a class, e.g. $('<span>').text('text!').length is 1 in all browsers

Whoops. You can close this bug. It is fixed in edge, but broken in the stable release. My bad

Close your span like the docs say to do.
