Do you use a self closing span? You cannot do that, I experienced
similiar crashing.

IE just won't understand <span/> and sees it as an opening tag. Not a
reason to crash, but hey, IE is always good for a surprise.

Use: <span class="ui-icon ui-icon-seek-next"></span>

General rule of thumb in IE: do not use self closing tags except for
the ones that are defined in HTML (<img>, <hr>, <br> ...).

You're dealing with HTML (text/html) and not XHTML (application/xhtml
+xml).
