Description
jQuery: 1.9.1, 1.10.2, 2.0.3
Browser: IE10 (not IE9 or 8)
In IE10, when you get the html of a textarea element, you will get the placeholder value if there is no content.

$('<textarea placeholder="something"></textarea>').html() => 'something'

Sorry, I tried to make the example as simple as possible to show the problem. I am aware that .val() is the correct way of getting values.
I saw the problem when I was looking at the elements from a server response (see the updated fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Douglas_Meyer/cYRKq/) it showed that the textarea was pre-populated with the placeholder text.

IMHO this is a bug in the innerHTML, innerText and outerHTML implementation of IE10 and IE11.
I send a bug report to Microsoft:
https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/feedback/details/811408
Have a look at it for example and how to reproduces the problem.
That's sorta interesting. Works fine when you use
.val()which is the correct API for getting form values.
