ie8 problem

[sjorsvanleeuwen]

in ie8 jquery hangs at startup at line 3517 (uncompressed stable release 3.1.2).

I made a small workaround by putting a try catch around the else statement like: if( s.username ) {

xhr.open(type, s.url, s.async, s.username, s.password);

} else {

try {

xhr.open(type, s.url, s.async);

} catch(e) {}

}

It works for now because i dont use the above code but it would be nice if it can be fixed :)

We're definitely going to need a full test case in order to diagnose what's going on here. If you have a page that we can look at we would definitely appreciate it.
