Description

In the initialize method of offset.js, the following code will leak in IE:

		body.removeChild( container );

We need to also set the outerHTML to '' for the container.

		body.removeChild( container );
                container.outerHTML = '';

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project!

Is there any way that you can show evidence of this memory leak?
