Need help with browser differences using jQuery plugins

Hello all - new to this site and to jQuery, hoping to find some help (or at least commiseration) with my first 'big' creation using jQuery.

http://comparemyagent.com/forms/fa_sell.cfm

This page is using Jorn's plug ins for Validation and Accordion panels.
So far so good, and in FireFox everything -almost- works exactly as I need it to. However, in IE6 and 7 I am having some issues that have me totally stuck.

Before I post a laundry list here, is there anyone looking for a few hours' side work... soon..? I am supposed to have this deliverable this week and time is ticking.

Please contact me at zionblue at gmail dot com if interested, or if you want to see it out in the open, reply here and I'll post my list of issues.

I am also looking to break the validation up into steps, so the 'next' button first validates the set of fields in the first panel, then if all is ok, allows moving to the next panel.

I could rebuild this using two separate forms and pass the values in CF, but I've come this far, would really like to push across the finish line with jQuery, if possible.

thanks in advance.
