jQuery .load with selector <script> tag in HTML comment

Reported by: anonymous Owned by: anonymous

Description

Basically:

$('body').load('page.html #something')

will not work if #something has a comment with a script tag in it. e.g.


<div id=something>
bla content blala
<!--


bla <script>
this is just a comment!

the above script tag needn't be closed, heck:

<script


^ this is enough to cause the issue
-->

this poor text didn't make it

</div>

It doesn't happen when .html-ing
