.html() .text() .val() issue on IE for some tags (a,span)

Hi,

On IE , when you try to create a new tag "a" or "span" with a default content, it doesn't work.

Example:

//same thing for span

$.('<a href="#">').text("I am a link").appendTo("body");

Some tags demand the closing dash. This should always be included to make it valid html, but I know that links just fail without it.
