Strange jQuery attributes cause selector to fail in IE

[raid_ox]

In internet explorer, using $('selector').html() will emit strange jquery attributes that sometimes can cause problem:

$('#test').html() <-- <li jQuery32491238934="2"><span jQuery32491238934="null" class="name>...

the problem is, when you need to insert those string back to html, the selector won't work properly.

I created a demo to demonstrate this problem:  http://code.riiv.net/demos/iebug.html

in ie, if you click get length, it will return 1, whereas in other browser 4.

any ideas?

This is a manifestation of #3254 so I'll close this ticket as a dup.
