bing translator and non-well-formed html

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Comment by mightysam, Nov 3:

We have been using the this jquery translation library with Google on our site 
for close to 2 years and it's working great. Recently we tried to switch to 
Bing and I can see the site start to fall part after switching between a few 
languages.

After some investigation, I believe the problem lies on Bing's requirement on 
sending well formatted HTML tags. 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff512406.aspx which may not be 
happening because jquery is breaking up the HTML.

For example, the jquery translation library may break up the site's HTML into 
the following before sending to Bing: </div><div>Text 1</div><div>Text 2</div>

Bing will return the following after translation, stripping out incomplete 
tags: <div>Text 1</div><div>Text 2</div>

When the library tries to put the results back to the original position, the 
website will be messed up with missing and misplaced tags. Any suggestion on 
how this can be fixed?
