[jQuery] per jQuery inserted script does not fire in IE6

[jQuery] per jQuery inserted script does not fire in IE6


maybe i'm wrong but this is what i'm doing right now:
i'm inserting portions of html in an existing page like that:
<div id="container">
<p id="foo">foo
<!-- insert here -->
</div>

<a href="#">insert</a>


clicking on the link will actually insert something like this:

Bar


<script ,,,>alert("i'm there")</script>
it all goes fine in modern browsers but IE6 fails. it even excludes
the script (as far as i can tell, looking at the html-code) which are
there in FF and all others.
what am i doing wrong ?
