I have a simple piece of HTML

<p id="skills">Skills</p>

in Firefox 3.6.3 when I call (with JQuery):

$("#skills")[0].innerHTML = "some new text"

Firefox renders it as

<p id="skills"><a xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">some new text</a></p>

Where in the world is that link coming from??

(note the same thing happens by calling $("#skills").html("some new text") with JQuery)
