This bug cannot be reproduced in JSFiddle, because it only appears to happen in MSIE compatability mode which JSFiddle itself doesn't support.

the error is thrown from JQuery.ready.promise, to reproduce open Internet Explorer, use $(document).ready( fn ), open dev console (F12) and set the Document mode to IE7 Standards. I'm using JQuery edge in my tests:

jQuery.ready.promise = function( obj ) {

if ( !readyList ) {

readyList = jQuery.Deferred();

if ( document.readyState === "complete" ) {

setTimeout( jQuery.ready );

} else {

[ERROR Thrown here]

document.addEventListener( "DOMContentLoaded", completed, false );

window.addEventListener( "load", completed, false );

}

}

return readyList.promise( obj );

};
