jQuery and IE8 not behaving

jQuery and IE8 not behaving


Hi There,
 
Having a problem with IE 8 not behaving properly with jQuery tabs, dialog boxes and not executing javascript.
I have a form that submits to an asp.net mvc site and returns the following to the browser
 

<

div id ="EditComplete" title ="Edit Complete"> Changes Saved. </ div >

<

script type ="text/javascript" language ="javascript">

$(document).ready(

function (){

$(

"#EditComplete" ).dialog({ buttons: { "Ok" : function () { $( this ).dialog( "close" ); } }, draggable: false , show: 'highlight' , hide: 'highlight' , modal: true , resizable: false });

});

</

script >

 
Chrome and Firefox do as expected and a dialog box pops up and closes when you click ok. However in IE 8 it just displays the div and does not execute the javascript. Am I missing something or does IE need some special prompting to do what other browsers do properly ?
 
Cheers,
