I have the same problem, but I've solved it!
It seems to be a CSS related issue and it occurs when you use the jQuery
function $(this).css('-7px !important') or something similar.The easiest way to discover what is causing the error in your code is to open up the jQuery.min.js file in a text editor. The file is not very readable by default (no indentation or spacing). If you are using a real IDE (such as Eclipse) you can select in the top meny Source > Format to have Eclipse make the code readable. Get eclipse here: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ Locate the following lines: if (set) elem[name] = value; return elem[name]; Now insert an alertbox which spits out the contents of the String "value" everytime it is set: if (set) alert(value); elem[name] = value; return elem[name]; Save and upload the file to your server and in your IE browser refresh your page that triggers the error. You will now get an alertbox for every jQuery-call that sets the value of String "value". Take note on the contents of the alertbox just before the IE error dialog occurs. That will most certainly give you a hint of what parameter IE cannot handle, in my case it was the CSS value "!important" that was set through the .css jQuery function. Hope this helps! /Aaslun smurkas-2 wrote: > > > Hello. When I use the dialog in jquery UI I get an error in explorer > 6.
