[jQuery] Re: Appending text works; appending element doesn't

[ricardobeat]

Oh, I meant for public websites, where neither of those would be
available to IE users. I wish I could code for FF only :(

Coming back to topic, does anyone has information on the differences
in DOM methods for 'application/xml' pages, or any plans from the
jQuery team to make it stable in this environment?

 Sure.  Embedded SVG, math, et cetera.. and you're assured that the
 document is valid XML when it comes to parsing.  (At least in proper
 browsers.. ;-)

 Removing the tablesorter artifact (left over when I trimmed to a

 Changing the document's IMT from 'application/xhtml+xml;charset=UTF-8'
 to 'text/html' allowed it to work.  Changing the content type of my
 documents isn't an option.

 Can you verify that yours works with the XHTML content type?  Or not?

 If not, this sounds like a bug, and I suspect it's either in jQuery
 itself or in how jeditable is calling jQuery.  (I'm probably wrong,
 but that's how it feels.)  If it *is* a bug (and not a 'not yet
 supported feature') where should I log it?

 Thanks!

I can tell you that my experience also with an XHTML+XML MIME and JQuery was
full of pain.
Luckily, I had the option to change the Content-Type, as it was only there
for a legacy app. So,
I never bothered to investigate further whether or not it could work with
JQuery.

Your code, exactly as it is, works perfectly for me. I didn't include
the tablesorter plugin in my test.

I can't see anything I'm doing wrong here, but it still won't work.
I've tried this:

code
var span = $('spanElem/span');
span.appendTo(this);
/code

but then Firebug says:

code
Node cannot be inserted at the specified point in the hierarchy code:
3
  this.appendChild( elem ); [jquery.js line 238]
/code

I'm lost here..
