jQuery causing problems in IE (only IE)
Hi guys,
any help will be greatly appreciated...
The problem:
The site in question heavily uses Javascript, there are more than a dozen scripts executing. Everything works fine in Chrome and Firefox 3.5+...but, in IE there are several problems:
-
- Hover effect over table elements is painfully slow in IE (only IE)
- Very high processor usage on mouseover
- Flash animation pauses/stops when moving mouse over table elements (making flash banners on the site impossible -> big problem)
You can se the page
here
(there's a flash animation on the right side of the page (light grey/blue color))

I've isolated the problem, it's something with jQuery.
There are more than a dozen scripts executing on the page, when I remove the first of them ( put the line below in a comment) the problem disappears, along with all the JavaScript functionality...
Here's the problem line:
-
<script language="JavaScript" src="javascript/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
I have attached the problem file (jquery.js, renamed to jquery.txt so I can upload it):
