JQuery UI opens multiple dialogs when facing an XML header

Using JavaScript's XMLSerializer, I convert some XML to HTML.

In Firefox, the resultant HTML is prefaced with XML metadata:

When I hand this into jquery's dialog function, multiple dialogs open.

The code behaves as expected in Chrome, since the XMLSerializer doesn't add the XML metadata.

var content = new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(result);

//<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><myXML></myXML>

$(content).dialog();

As a workaround, I can remove the XML header:

var content = new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(xml);

var cleanContent = content.replace(/<\\?.*\\?>/, "");

This is correct. If you call dialog on two nodes, you'll get two dialogs.
