Possible Duplicates:
Jquery html() and self closing tags
Is it expected that jQuery $('span').html() turns XHTML br tag to html syntax?
I have a document like this
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<script src="/js/core/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
<img src="/some/image.gif" />
</div>
</body>
</html>
I want to retrive html for some nodes to do something. But I see one problem with IMG.
$('#content').html();
This returns invalid XHTML
<img src="/some/image.gif">
jQuery version is 1.4.2.

This is a duplicate, but none of the answers in the original question gives an actual workaround. (Probably rightly so. I can't but agree with what @Cletus says in his - as always excellent - answer.)
But if you're stuck with XHTML: there is a jQuery plugin providing a innerXHTML() function (poorly maintained though, last updated 2007, and never made it from Beta) and a JavaScript tool named innerXHTML that promises to do what you need. If you need this, that may be your best bet.
