Note: this bug only seems to be valid in browsers that use addEventListener. Browsers that use attachEvent (i.e. IE) appear to be unaffected.

Using button.appendTo("#appendto div") - Works as expected

Here is a p tag, after this (but within the containing div) a button shall be appended, click it and an event fires

Here is another p tag, after this (but within the containing div) a button shall be appended, click it and an event fires

Using $("#append div").append(button2) - Doesn't work as expected: click event is not bound

Here is a p tag, after this (but within the containing div) a button shall be appended, however it's click event is not bound

Here is another p tag, after this (but within the containing div) a button shall be appended, however it's click event is not bound

Using $("#append div:first").append(button3) - Works as expected: but only because we are appending to 1 element

Here is a p tag, after this (but within the containing div) a button shall be appended, click it and an event fires

Here is another p tag, The button should not be appended to this p tag
