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 whenais a normal DOM element andbis a text node. I don't believe there is anywhere that core depends onjQuery.containsfor text nodes, so I have updated the documentation.
