FWIW, I've had issues in IE 6/7 with $(document).ready() not firing
something in it's function. I've never dug into exactly why it happens,
but found a workaround using setTimeout, like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
setTimeout(
function(){
your code that isn't firing in IE here
}
, ( $.browser.msie ) ? 500 : 0
)
});
So, maybe give that a try. FWIW, we (me and the folks I work with) found
that 500ms seemed to do the trick, but 100ms didn't.
Also, If anyone knows why that's needed for some things to fire via
$(document).ready, I'd love to know. We've also worked around it by
doing these things:
1. putting our $(document).ready at the end of the HTML page (after the
objects that we need ready).
2. used setTimeout() to check for the presence of the object(s) we need
ready, and when they become ready, binding to them.
