I personally love the JQuery library, it makes life soo much easier. Add to that the JQuery UI libraries and you have yourself a seriously mean platform to build killer applications. That said, I ran into a mean little bug that affects the way the UI Dialog shows up on the page in Internet Exploder, I know… stop rolling your eyes it is here to stay and we will need to learn to play nice.
The bug:
Once a JQuery UI dialog has been initialized, opened once, and then closed it cannot be reopened in IE due to an “invalid argument” error.
The fix:
Open up your copy of jquery.js (you do have it locally right?, latency alert!) around line 1060 look for:
if ( set ) elem[ name ] = value;
and change it to:
if ( set )
try{elem[ name ] = value;} catch (error){};
Viola!
