I am using a tool in php to write some HTML code for me and I stuck this chunk in there so that it could write me a footer with my company's information. It seems to work fine EXCEPT the links for www.company.com is include in "|Send Feedback" and the links for docfeedback_@company.com are included in "|See:". How can I fix this so "|Send Feedback" and "|See:" are just plain text and not included as links!? Thank you so much! 

What i have noticed is that the source code of my html file does not show </a> tags at the end of <a href> so i think that jquery is removing </a> for some reason...

1. <div id="footer">
2. </div>
3. <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
4. <script type="text/javascript">
5. /**
6. * Append footer to page.
7. **/
8. function paFooter() {
9. return '<div class="memitem" id="footer" align=right><em>&copy 1989-2015 Company XX. </em>| Visit Us: <a href="http://www.company.com">www.company.com </a>| Send Feedback: <a href="mailto:docfeedback_@company.com">docfeedback_@company.com </a>| See: <a href="../../../../Terms_of_Use.html">Terms of Use </a><a href="../../../../Privacy_Policy.html">Privacy Policy</a></DIV><!-- end FOOTER -->';
10. }
11. 
    
12. $(document).ready(function() {
13. $("#footer").append(paFooter());
14. });
15. </script>
