I am adding content to a div in more than one call, but it seems that $().html and $().append try to fix the content when added.  During the first call I add <table><tr>..... and on the second call more is added until on the last call the table and rows,ect. are properly terminated ....</tr></table>.  On the first call, though, the table is being "fixed" before I add the rest of the content, i.e. it sees that the <table><tr> are not terminated so it is doing it for me.  Is there a function that I can use that will not change the content when put in to the div?
