I am unable to replicate the failure on a clean 4.2.1 with IE8. I suspect IE8 is caching -- it has a number of overzealous layers of caching.

The calls use direct DOM manipulation -- shifting to using jQuery might very well resolve the problem, as jQuery has a number of abstractions which paper over browser bugs like this. The specific cause is known -- you can read the issues.bestpractical.com ticket for details if you're curious, or want to test and propose a patch. - Alex
