Firefox: can't insert form inside form with html - but with append

Description

Hi,

I've noticed that Firefox can't insert a form inside a p inside another form with .htm(). The same works fine with html('').append(...)

Debugging this seems as if Firefox just silently ignores the this[i].innerHTML = value in html() - nut sure whats up there.

Reduction appended

I disagree, the problem is that the form is not inserted, not that it can't be selected.

The answer on the ticket linked to above applies also to this report.

nested forms are invalid and the browser isn't obligated to do anything predictable with invalid html
