title: JQuery .html() remove line break on IE 8
body: <p>So I've been trying to decode string with .html() function in jQuery and it work really nice except on IE...</p>
  
  <p>Here is the string I have: </p>
  
  <pre><code>&amp;#233;&amp;#233;&amp;#233;\r\n&amp;#224;&amp;#224;&amp;#224;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want this to be:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ééé\r\nààà
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I currently get after .html() with IE:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ééé ààà
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So this seems nice on FF and Chrome but on IE all linebreak are removed.
  I found an article (<a href="http://web.student.tuwien.ac.at/~e0226430/innerHtmlQuirk.html" rel="nofollow">http://web.student.tuwien.ac.at/~e0226430/innerHtmlQuirk.html</a>) explaining the problem is with .innerHTML used by .html() function...</p>
  
  <p>I'm actually surprised to not found a topic about that. Is there any solution?
  Maybe do a specific function to decode that on IE?</p>
  
  <p>For more here is the code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var itemDescription = "&amp;#233;&amp;#233;&amp;#233;\r\n&amp;#224;&amp;#224;&amp;#224";
  $('.feeds').find('textarea.description[ifid="' + ifid + '"]').html(itemDescription);
  </code></pre>
