#9815 closed bug (fixed)

$.contains(element, textNode) always throws in IE8

Description

Calling jQuery.contains with the second parameter being a text node, Internet Explorer 8 throws a "No such interface supported" exception.

The documentation for $.contains explicitely states that the second parameter can be any type of node; not just elements. So this should work and report whether the node is contained in element given through first parameter.

A test case can be found here: http://jsfiddle.net/JpYCA/

Confirmed, in IE a.contains(b) throws the "No such interface supported" error when a is a normal DOM element and b is a text node. I don't believe there is anywhere that core depends on jQuery.contains for text nodes, so I have updated the documentation.
