Deserialization invalid HTML issue inside the "buildFragment"

[[email protected]…]

Hi,

My code works with the user data potentially containing non-valid HTML. I've found the bug which reproduced in the jsfiddle when jQuery throws an exception when trying to build fragment.

​http://jsfiddle.net/ynHPn/4/

I saw the same issue ​http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/13976 has been done but the fix doesn't work with my data set.

Please check it out.

I'll be waiting for your answer,

Thanks

What result would you ideally want from invalid input?

Ideally do not throw an exception.

Possible fix is:

diff --git a/src/manipulation.js b/src/manipulation.js
