Hi all, I've posted this issue a few times now, and received no response aside from a comment on a typo I had already caught. Is there anything else I need to provide so that someone might take an interest in this issue? I would post a web site where I have the scripts, but where I work I don't have access to an external public web site. Thanks in advance for anyone who can help. I have also included the web browser output from FF 3.5.2, and IE7 at the bottom of the email.
Doug (snip) All, I'm new to jQuery, but not JavaScript. I have the following really simple html file with jQuery-based JavaScript to open, read and display part of an xml file. It works fine on FF 3.5.2, but does not work on IE7. Am I missing something really simple to make jQuery work on IE7? Any help would be great, thanks!
