Hi Everyone, I have built a simple jQuery application (a web based chat app).
This works well in Firefox, Chrome, Safari etc... However, in what appears all versions of IE on "some" pageloads (normally the second or third, but this seems random) once the page is loaded all of the (non- javascript) links stop working. The "click" noise is heard as they are clicked, but nothing happens. Bizarrely, this only affects links pointing within the same domain - a link to google.com for example continues to work, but <a href="/">x</a> will not. I'm literally tearing my hair out to find the cause of this. Firebug, which is ace, shows everything working. There is a simple .getJSON call left open (which is closed by the server when a new message arrives) but this sometimes works perfectly in IE. I've tried to use the developer tools in IE8, and if I run the profiler I see function calls to function "N" and also "JScript - window script block". I dont know what this is, but I imagine that this might have something to do with it. So my questions are: - What is the best way to tell what the current method being executed in javascript is? (I cant seem to get the call stack or console in IE8 to do anything) - Is there a common newbie mistake in jQuery that can cause this behavior? - If I have to concede defeat myself (i've spent days rewriting this to no avail), does anyone know a cost effective and good jQuery consultant able to do jump in and fix problems / add small features to existing projects? Many thanks, Alex
