jquery/javascript issue for online version of a website on IE8.

wajid ansari

I am facing a unique bug on a website I am developing, Its occurring only for IE(I am using IE8) that too only on the online version of the site, On my local machine its working perfectly and on all other browsers(firefox, safari, and chrome) its working perfectly both on online version and on local version.
The problem is on this page: http://freej.ae/freejaetest/en/FreejEpisodes.aspx, After navigating to the given link please selcect "season 1" from "choose your season" links, from there please select "Images" button on the right side of the flash video, Now you can see images in the box where flash was running previously. I am using jquery colorbox when images are clicked to show large images, Here is the bug, If you check on other browsers colorbox will work but on IE8 it will not work.
One other thing I am facing on this site and it is also related to only online version of the site on IE8 as said above, Please navigate to this link: http://freej.ae/freejaetest/en/mediaclipping.aspx, Select "2" from the pager at the bottom, After loading the page main flash banner is disappearing.
Hope I am clear in explaing the issue, Please Let me know for anything to be cleared..
Appreciate your quick help..

Thanks

If its a problem in IE8 then might be a bug, or enable Compatibility View mode of IE and re-run the page.

Hi Guys
At last I figured it out, The problem is with ready method in jquery. It is behaving differently on different browsers.
Actually I wrote a code snippet under document.ready but now I wrote a function under document.ready and calling that function on onclick event and thats it..it solved the problem..

Thanks

I have obeserved that when I select "season 1" from the link I posted in my question and then when I click "Images" button the images that are shown in place of flash on the page does not showing up in page source by "view source". Is it normal for IE8. This might be the case for colorbox not working on IE, On firefox and other browsers this is not the case I can see the source of images and thats why colorbox working on other browsers. Any how I am unable to figure out what might preventing on IE8 to show the source for images...

I am not sure what the problem is that you are asking about but when I click on an image using IE the image is shown in a new browsere window but only the first time. If I cliock on an image again then nothing happens. If I do the same thing uisng Seamonkey, then the image opens in the same browser window and it works every time.

I can't help more than that but I get the impression that the pages need to be re-designed. It happens quite often in software development that it gets more complicated over time and more than we initially expected.
