Description

jQuery 1.32, 1.7 and 1.8 all show Internet Explorer 8 Error

on the first line of the jquery.js file: ILLEGAL CHARACTER.

**AND**:

This seems to prevent some programs from running: The following

program runs with jQuery 1.26 ONLY IN INTERNET EXPLORER. I runs with all versions of jQuery in Firefox:

SEE: http://mynichecomputing.org/RotBan/rotBanxx.html

This runs only with 1.26, though everything has been done to make sure NO INCOMPATIBILITIES between 1.26 and older version OCCUR IN THE ON-PAGE CODE!!

Your page does have invalid css.

Please ask for help on the forums or the #jquery irc channel.

I disagree. There are no css errors. Let me better edit my complaint

and bug report:

Honestly,

Please ask for help on the forums or the #jquery irc channel.

We're not equipped to do one-on-one support here in the bug tracker.

Firefox ignores your css error. I only looked at your page for 2 seconds, but I would suspect that IE8 could take more issue with your css error.

I found the CSS errors, you were correct.

I never checked the css; it came from a book example I elaborated on. It is interesting that CSS errors come up in IE8 as JS errors and I never

thought to look at the CSS, since the program did run with jQuery 1.26 IN IE8 with no problem (and, again, the errors indicated were JS errors).
