The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.I noticed when using ctools dependent that Internet explorer didn't work with a dependent fieldset triggered by a radio button. When clicking a radio button nothing changed, but after a click that blurs the radio the dependent field worked. After some investigation it seemed IE doesn't respect the jQuery change function: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/208471/getting-jquery-to-recognise-ch....
So I changed the change functions into a click function in dependent.js.
Maybe this helps anybody else, and could be implemented in dependent.js.

thedavidmeister commentedincidentally, although IE now does seem to be detecting the event correctly with that patch, i'm experiencing far from expected behaviour. Basically, clicking radio buttons seems to randomly display/hide what it is supposed to and the page sometimes loads with the incorrect form elements displayed.
this "needs work".
Comment #4
thedavidmeister commentedin the patch i provided earlier, I only replaced the string 'change' with 'click'. I needed to also replace the two instances of the jQuery methods change() with click().
patch attached for what I'm using now and i've tested as working in both IE8 and firefox :)
