That code is fine, it's what's used in the examples.
Timeline can work perfectly fine with IE, it's just that IE tends to
have really ambiguous error messages with Javascript, which makes it
much harder to debug.
Since IE is complaining about an object, look at the only object in
this code: tl
I'd guess that for some reason, your Timeline object tl isn't being
created properly, or is not in global scope.
Comment out the onResize code and see what IE complains about next.
