jqueryrotate works with IE7 and IE8, but not IE9

Question

Nice little plugin to rotate stuff: http://code.google.com/p/jqueryrotate/

This was a good example which works on IE7, IE8, FF, Chrome, etc, etc on how to make it work as a clock: http://d-zig.com/demo/46e3ec48-0f71-4615-8798-61cd83266659/

It doesn't work with IE6, but I am not surprised or disappointed.

The disappointing and surprising part is it works with earlier versions of IE, but not IE9!

Here is an initial jsFiddle http://jsfiddle.net/KurKa/

Any ideas?

Answer 1

I looked at the source of http://d-zig.com/demo/46e3ec48-0f71-4615-8798-61cd83266659/ , and it was using jquery 1.4.1 which could possibly explain why it does not work but your fiddle does. I believe this is most likely because your fiddle was using jquery 1.7.2.

In the past, I have had experience with several jquery plugins that would not work in IE9 because I was using an older version of jquery. If you upgrade jquery, the problem should be resolved.

Edit: I believe my assumptions are correct. Jquery did not support IE9 until version 1.5.1. This information can be found in a blog post for the release of jquery 1.5.1
