i use a textarea for build xml and after i parse it with $() but in IE8 i have a strange result if i try to add a attribute on a node with another attribute, if the node have no attribute the result is ok. Use my script for test it, before change the javascript source.
the result: <LIST name="toto" label="Les menus"></LIST name="toto">

if this is the case then why does jquery pass back a jquery object of the xml received after an$.ajax operation?
i only ask as i'm experiencing a null exception moving from 1.4.3 to 1.4.4 whilst working with jquery/xml and was wondering whether to log a bug and test case

Thanks for the report, but this is not a jQuery bug. You cannot create arbitrary elements from strings in IE without a third-party compatibility library like innerShiv. Even if you use such a thing, you are likely to run into more issues, so generally speaking you simply should not try to use jQuery to operate on non-HTML documents. In the future, please use the jQuery Forum for support requests.
