Create <ul><li></li></ul> with no line-returns before closing </ul> if you want to extract exact text vales from the <li>'s.

The safest way to layout the code of a <ul> is as a single uninterrupted line if you expect to extract the <li> text as a value.
In IE7, if there is a line-return after the final <li></li> and before the </ul> then IE7 will add an extra space " " to the end
of any values extracted from the final <li></li>.

<ul class="column-Library"><?php foreach( $libraries as $library ) echo '<li>'.htmlspecialchars($library).'</li>'; ?></ul>

Turns out var value = elem.innerHTML will retain the HTML entities, such as &quot;, insead of returning the actual string value.
