mpld3 interactive legend does not work in IE

Question

I am using the mpld3 library in python and I have notice that on internet explorer the interactive legend plugins does not work.

I've also notice that on the mpld3 web site, the example of interactive legend also does not work in IE.

So i'm kind of stuck here... any help ? you can see on that image that the interactive legend does not work

I'll also put the mpld3 interactive plugins link here: https://mpld3.github.io/examples/interactive_legend.html

Following lines of code in mpld3/plugins.py causing IE incompatibility:

• line 582 var type = d.mpld3_elements[i].constructor.name
• line 614 var type = d.mpld3_elements[0].constructor.name

replace them with:

• var type = d.mpld3_elements[i].constructor.toString().match(/^function\\s*([^\\s(]+)/)[1];
• var type = d.mpld3_elements[0].constructor.toString().match(/^function\\s*([^\\s(]+)/)[1];
