title: jQuery Apended Banner Not Displaying In IE7/8
body: <p>I made a sticky banner that sticks to the bottom of your screen as you scroll.  You can open it to view things such as terms and conditions, or you can close it, which will then keep it closed via a cookie.</p>
  
  <p>This works as expected in Chrome &amp; Firefox but does not seem to work at all in IE7 or IE8.  And I really have no idea why.  I'm new to jQuery and wouldn't even know where to begin, nothing specific stands out to me and IE doesn't have a console to see any errors.  Does anybody have any ideas that would prevent this from working in early IE's  (I don't have later IE's to test so it could be broken in those also)</p>

  <p><strong>Full Screen Example</strong> <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/xe6cth6s/embedded/result/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/xe6cth6s/embedded/result/</a> (This "works" in IE - Still doesn't show anything)</p>
  
  <p>If I had to guess it could be something to do with how I'm appending the HTML content to the body?  But I really don't know!</p>
