JQuery Signature not working for IE <= 9

Question

I am using JQuery Singature and I encountered this Error Message for above IE version:

Message: Canvas element does not support 2d context. jSignature cannot proceed.

update : After Added the (;) in the flashcanvas.js

The Problem is the Same:

Message: Expected ';'
flashcanvas.swf

Code: 0

I have downloaded the flashcanvas.swf and flashcanvas.js from:

https://github.com/brinley/jSignature/blob/master/libs/flashcanvas.js https://github.com/brinley/jSignature/blob/master/libs/flashcanvas.swf

these two files I placed them in a Folder called Script.

It does not matter if I include or did not include flashcanvas.swf What I need to do?

here the javascript

 <!--[if lte IE 9]>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="Script/flashcanvas.js"></script>  
  <script type="text/javascript" src="Script/flashcanvas.swf"></script> 
<![endif]-->  

<script type="text/javascript" src="Script/jSignature.js"></script>   

<script type="text/javascript">

    $(document).ready(function (){
    $("#divSignature").jSignature({width:400, height:140, mousedown:function(){}});
    });

</script>

Answer 1

Just a syntax error, simply update the following at line 928 of flashcanvas.js:

function getSwfUrl(window) {
    return ( (window[FLASH_CANVAS + "Options"] || {})["swfPath"] || BASE_URL ) + "flashcanvas.swf"; //Added semicolon
}

IE tend to be less lenient towards Javascript errors, which can be a good thing for programmers learning the language. Browsers like Chrome can accommodate a fair amount of JS errors and still correctly execute a script.
