Problem with javascript (jQuery). Works in firefox but not in IE

Question

I have a problem with a site I am working on, available here.

The javascript on the site works as inteded when browsed with firefox. In IE7, however, the javascript does not even get executed.

As I am new to javascript I suspect that I am probably doing an obvious mistake somewhere in the code.

Any help is appreciated!

You really need to provide bit more info here... for what it's worth, yes, jQuery does (and should) work on modern IE versions. If you see any javascript problems notes by IE (alas, IE js debug support sucks), try to check those first. — StaxMan

IE js debug support does suck as much as most people think see: notetodogself.blogspot.com/2008/08/debug-javascript-in-ie.html The problem is that its MUCH harder to get working than downloading firebug in 15 seconds — mkoryak

here is your problem:

$.get("ajax.php", {case: caseNr, picturenr: picNr, pictureinfo: true}, function(data){

case is a reserved word. When using hashes, always make keys be strings, and you will never get yourself in to trouble

$.get("ajax.php", {"case": caseNr, "picturenr": picNr, "pictureinfo": true}, function(data){

Your problem is on line 43, karlsten.js, on IE8, so you may want to debug it on IE8, if possible, or get the Web Developer Tools. $.get("ajax.php", {case: caseNr,

But, someone just submitted this before I did, with a good answer. :)
