IE8 click and trigger access denied

[[email protected]…]

The following code fails with an "access denied" javascript error, using click(), trigger(), or default javascript click().

$('#photo').change(function(e) {
    		setTimeout((function(){
				$('#submit').trigger('click'); 
				//document.getElementById("submit").click();
								setTimeout((function(){
					$('#filename').text("")
					$('#photoHolder').empty().delay(15000).html('<img id="currPhoto" border="none" height="100" width="80" src=""/>');
					$('#currPhoto').attr("src", "getImage.cfm?ssoid=0118999");
					//alert($('#currPhoto').attr("src"));
					}),3000);
			}), 2000);
		});

This is the line of code in 1.7.1 that IE8 points to in debugger:

c.type=h,c.isDefaultPrevented()||(!p._default||p._default.apply(e.ownerDocument,d)===!1)&&(h!=="click"||!f.nodeName(e,"a"))&&f.acceptData(e)&&o&&e[h]&&(h!=="focus"&&h!=="blur"||c.target.offsetWidth!==0)&&!f.isWindow(e)&&(n=e[o],n&&(e[o]=null),f.event.triggered=h,e[h](),f.event.triggered=b,n&&(e[o]=n));
