Description

I noticed a problem with appending elements to body node in IE9.

Example code: 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
	<title>Test</title>
	<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.6.1.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
	<a href="http://codequest.eul">test</a>
	<script type="text/javascript">
		jQuery(document).ready(function($){
			$('a').click(function(){
				$('body').append('<p>test</p>');
				return false;
			});
		});
	</script>
</body>
</html>

IE9 don't prevent default event and redirect to the location which is in href attribute. I tried to replace the value of href attribute to "#". Then I get this error message in the browser console:

error in jquery-1.6.1.js, row 5569, character 5.

When I'm trying to append to another element, for example: 

$('a').append('<p>test</p>');

it works fine. When I remove http adress from href attribute

jsFiddle doesn't seem to work, so I put code inline.

I created a test case and everything seems to be working fine in all browsers: ​http://jsfiddle.net/timmywil/BGt8U/

If you can reproduce with a test case, we can revisit this ticket.
