Objected Expected Error Javascript/Jquery

Question

I get the following error "Objected Expected" on line 5 of this code in IE8, the code works in Firefox but not IE 8 which is the browser I am developing for. Thanks.

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js">
</script>    
<script language="javascript">

$(document).ready(function(){
if($('#DialogFinalMessage > div').html().length>0){
    window.location.href = "<Desired destination page URL>"
 }
});
</script>

Really? Where is the <doctype>, the <html> etc..? Or is it only in this bit of code line 5? — putvande

Thats just a snippit of the code, I have over 800 lines but the problem lies within this code! — Corbin Spicer

$('#DialogFinalMessage > div').html() will return null/undefined if it did not find any elements matching the selector. Check if any elements were found before trying to get their source. — user1233508
