jQuery-1.5.1 doesn't work in WebBrowser control

[fl.lllj@…]

When loaded in WebBrowser control, happens an error "line nnn, symbol 1, '1' is null or not an object" and jQuery doesn't works.
IE8 - line 6313, IE7 - line 6314.

Affected jQuery version - 1.5.1,
unaffected versions - 1.5 and prior.

Web browser - WebBrowser ActiveX control (IE8, IE7),
but not IE8 or IE7 web browsers.

OS - Windows 7, WindowsXP SP3

Code to reproduce bug (C#):

using System.Windows.Forms;

class TestForm : Form
{
    TestForm()
    {
        SuspendLayout();
        WebBrowser _webBrowser = new WebBrowser { Dock = DockStyle.Fill };
        Controls.Add(_webBrowser);
        ResumeLayout(false);

        _webBrowser.DocumentText = @"
    <script type='text/javascript' src='http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.5.1.js'></script>
";
    }

    [System.STAThread]
    static void Main()
    {
        (new TestForm()).ShowDialog();
    }
}

I have a C++/Win32 exe with an embedded browser and it seems to load jQuery 1.5.1 with no problems/errors on Windows 7 and IE8. I'm not sure what the difference is versus your C#/.NET version, I do not have the ability to compile your C# example. Is it possible it is dependent on the version of .NET?

The error and line number doesn't seem to make sense, it's the jQuery.extend call that is closed on line 6815.

In an effort to try and understand this report... looking at Line 6313 & 6314, the way IE reports bugs, I started looking down inside the jQuery.extend({}) and there exists at line 6348:

isLocal: rlocalProtocol.test( ajaxLocParts[ 1 ] ),

I'm wondering if ajaxLocParts[ 1 ] does not actually exist to test in the WebBrowser control?

This is conjecture...

Fixes #8509. Makes URL regexp less overzealous and ensures it recognizes URL schemes which do not contain a conformant hierarchical structure ( as per section 2.1.2 of  http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2718.txt ). Also adds about: and adobe air's app: and app-storage: to the list of local protocols and provides a failover in case document.location is illformed. Unit test added.

This changeset (714ae379db9dcb704c04080196a05d13a028f7a4) worked for me in Adobe Air. Thanks!
