Description
Please contact me so I can send you the bug. It's a real bug with parsing XML from a string (IE and FF/chrome differ). I have a test case file ready, but you have no file upload, and when I paste it in a code block I get the spam message.

The file eliminates any transport/request issues by simply putting the xml in a JS string. Just save it to disk and then load it in IE8 and any other browser. The alert will show a different number of elements resulting from
jQuery(xmlblob)

There is no support for parsing xml-strings by passing them to the jQuery( html ) signature. The documentation for jQuery( html ) is pretty clear about this.
A string of HTML to create on the fly. Note that this parses HTML, not XML.
Please follow the bug reporting guidlines and use jsFiddle when providing test cases and demonstrations instead of pasting the code in the ticket.

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project.
Just post the xml blob on http://pastebin.com and include the link plus instructions
