DOM Expandos kill IE8 beta

DOM Expandos kill IE8 beta


repost from jquery-en:
Hello all,
after a tedious debugging-session with IE8 beta crashing with my
gridtable impl,
i narrowed it down to the following line:
var rowEl = document.createElement('tr');
rowEl.gt_data = data; // <- CRASH
return rowEl;
setting objects as DOM expandos literally kills IE8 beta :(
these tries do not work either:
var row = $('<tr />').appendTo( this.table.find('> tbody') );
row.data('gt_data', {bar: 'FOO'}); // <- CRASH
row.data('gt_data', {}); // <- CRASH
row.data('gt_data', [] ); // <- worked, now CRASHES too, sporadically?
row.data('gt_data', 'HELL' ); // worked, now CRASHES too,
sporadically?
verrry weird, anyone experiencing the same issues?
yours,
kai
