Description
I can easily reproduce Ticket #7522 (which was closed as worksforme) in IE with the scenario provided on Ticket #5819 (closed as duplicate of the previous ticket) and replacing the jQuery included on the scenario with the new version 1.5.1.
The IE version is 8.0.6001.19019. On a Windows Vista Business machine, SP2, 32-bit.
Works with latest Firefox (4.0) and latest Chrome (10.0.648.151).
I have tested with some previous versions of jQuery:
- Works in jQuery 1.2, 1.3.2, 1.4.2, 1.4.3, 1.4.4
- Doesn't work in jQuery 1.4, 1.4.1, 1.5, 1.5.1
Ticket #7522 mentions trying 1.4.2 and 1.4.4 both without success. Oddly enough, those two versions worked for me.
I have seen also forum threads mentioning the issue ( like here), and think it needs to be addressed.

I did not find any opened issues on my search before reporting, but 3 days ago was opened the same issue on Ticket #8574. This one should be marked as duplicate. Possible workaround here
