HTML tags not processed in IE7 using append instruction

[anonymous]

I have this code working fine in IE8 and Firefox, but there is an issue with appending the HTML tags in IE7

	SDataService.prototype.stationData = function (jQ_dataelement) {
		
		// clear existing rows
		
		$(" $(jQ_dataelement) > tr").remove();

		
		$.ajax({
				  type:'GET',
				  contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
				  url:this.webServiceLink,
				  dataType:'json',
				  success: function (resultData) {
				  
			  
					  if (resultData.Records.length > 0) {
						  
						// append new data 
						
						$(jQ_dataelement).append ('<tr><td width="200"><b>DATA &nbsp;  TO  :</b> </td><td width="100"><b>LEAVING :  </b></td><td width="150"><b>DELAY :</b></td></tr>')
						}
		
					for (var i = 0; i < resultData.Records.length; i++) {
						var traininfo = resultData.Records[i];
						
						
						
						var delay = traininfo.DL == null ? "00:00" : traininfo.DL
						//style delay cell if value != 00:00
						
						var city = (traininfo.ST.N == null || traininfo.ST.N == "") ? "Geen info" : traininfo.ST.N
					
						var trainInfo = traininfo.ST.U
						
						var trainHourMatch  =  trainInfo.indexOf("&t=")
						// then perform slice (from match pos)
						var trainHour = trainInfo.substr (trainHourMatch + 3, 5)				
			 
						//add data to DIV						 
						$(jQ_dataelement).append('<tr><td>' + city + '</td><td>' + trainHour + '</td><td>' + delay + '</td></tr>' );
						// style row
						$("tr:odd").css("background-color", "#FF8C04")

					} // end for
					 
				}, // end success
				
				error: function (e) {
					
						alert ("Error in TrainStation.getStation data method. Error message : " + e) 
				} // end AJAX				
				
	
		}); 
		

	} // 

} // end SD class

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project by writing a bug report.

Please submit a valid reduced test case, which reproduces the issue you are experiencing, on ​http://jsfiddle.net. So that we can investigate this issue further.

Since your problem isn't related to an ajax call, but rather, appending html - it'd be very helpful if you could create the same problem without the ajax request and something we could run on jsfiddle.net

Thanks again!
