JS noob


I'm new to JS and especially jQuery so go easy on me.
I'm trying to use the following code snippet(found in AJAX section od
jQuery demo page) in a page to "pop-up" a create message dialog...
<a href="createMessage.php?height=380&width=320&modal=true"
class="thickbox" title="New Mail Message">New Message</a>
It works beautifully in Firefox and Safari, but not in IE 6.0.2900.xxx
or IE 7.0.5.xxx
What happens:
The screen is grayed out like it is supposed to be, a broken image
link appears centered...probably my fault...and then the page turns
blank white. The source of of the blank white page is ... <script
id=__ie_init defer=true src=//:></script> That's it!
I'm using the latest build of Thickbox and jQuery both found on
http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/
I've been searching the net, but I can't find any issues specifically
related to IE's problem with this. I'm sure one of you has
experienced this and has a work around. Any help would be
appreciated.
Sincerely,
Joe
