In IE9 Document Standards, fire_event *looks* like it works and then quietly does nothing. The docs say they kept the method for 'backward compatibility' which would be fine if it did anything but it *silently fails* and will not actually fire the event. Instead IE9 uses createEvent/dispatchEvent, which is closer to how other browsers like firefox handle events. So that code is critical for IE9 running in IE9 Document Standards
We should be able to detect the document standards the page is using and then make a little more intelligent decision as to which method to call, instead of using the browser version. I'll take a look this weekend and make a fix (we have a big release going out of Friday, so won't be able to get to it till after that) Thanks for digging into this Alister! Thanks! Hugh
