           Summary: innerHTML value of "self-closed" XML tag inconsistent
                    with other browsers
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: itaylor at crowdfactory.com


While self-closed tags are not a supported part of XHTML in any of the three
major browsers, the failure condition in WebKit differs from that of IE and
Firefox.  

It appears as though Webkit's search for a close tag for the "missing" close
tag of the self closed tag is scoped differently than IE and Firefox.

I've attached a test case that reproduces the behavior.
(see bug 26151 for more discussion of self-closed tags)
