I'm have some that uses jQuery.clone() to get the html of a page and then add it to a pre tag. It works correctly in Firefox and Chrome, but nothing happens in IE:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script class="jsbin" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title>JS Bin</title>
<!--[if IE]>
<script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
<script>
$(function(){
$('button').click(function(){
var $clone = $('html').clone();
$('#output').text($clone.html());
});
});
</script>
<style>
article, aside, figure, footer, header, hgroup,
menu, nav, section { display: block; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<button>run test</button>
<pre id="output"></pre>
</body>
</html>
Is there any know bug with IE that prevents this, or am I doing something wrong?
(I need to clone it because I'm doing some changes to it before outputting it)
