Exception in curCSS, when called with textnodes...

[m_abs]

I get an uncut exception from the curCSS function in firefox 2.0.0.13 under ubuntu 7.10.

Here is an example for code that gives that exception

$( "<b>TODO</b>: load this view<br /><input type='button' class='button' value='Close' onclick='alert( \"hallo\" );' />" ).appendTo( document.body ).show( );

I think it happens because the ": load this view" part from my string, becomes a textnode and apparently getComputedStyle doesn't work with that. I tried adding a try-catch around the line

var getComputedStyle = document.defaultView.getComputedStyle( elem, null );

in which I alerted the nodeName (was "#text") and the nodeValue (was ": load this view");

Maybe it would be a good idea to do some type checking.

In previous tickets, the reply was "The string passed to $() must be valid html, as in, wrapped with nodes"

So I think this is just invalid html.

I'll close for now, feel free to reopen if you have something to say.
