"Object doesn't support this property or method" clone problem in IE with sortable

[Jungers42]

We've got some sortable content on a page and we happen to try and embed a YouTube video in one div with the standard flash object / embed tags. This works fine on FireFox but throws an error in Internet Explorer (both IE6 and IE7). Specifically, as soon as the drag begins, you get the error message.

Using the unpacked JQuery library, the error occurs on line 290 of clone:

return jQuery.clean([container.innerHTML])[0];
