Description
Someone had made a post under the Hierarchical Select module which I think is meant for here (http://drupal.org/node/179866). I tested it out myself and Content Taxonomy ActiveSelect doesn't work in IE7. I can choose from the first select widget and it eventually seems as though the second widget is populated, but only blank rows are shown.
See attached photo.

update
I can confirm this as well, but would like to add something
The second level of terms "are there" - the box will change size to adapt to second level.
So, I scrolled down through the "blank" list and just picked any old thing
it grabbed data and I could see choice when saved.
Not having much skill in trouble shooting, I tried to change the theme - hoping that would poriduce a different result --- second box data still blank choices (but actually there)

I use IE6 SP2, also same problems.
I tried firefox, it work perfectly.

I also tested IE6 SP2 and I can CONFIRM the bug. It does work as advertised in Firefox and Safari. I would mark this bug critical as it makes the Active Select module of Content Taxonomy unusable for end users in Explorer.
However, I don't know for sure if this bug is in Content Taxonomy or in Active Select. Might be worth running some more tests.
Thanks for all the hard work on this module!

I have the same problem in IE6 and IE7

I can also confirm this

This seems to be a bug in activeSelect see this issue: elements shows empty texts in IE 7.0.5730.11IC and IE 6.0
#7
The following works for me:
Change line 156 (approx) from activeselect.js
-- $(this.targets[targetIndex]).append(new Option(text, value, false, selected));
++ if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") {
++ this.targets[targetIndex].add(new Option(text, value, false, selected));
++ }else{
++ $(this.targets[targetIndex]).append(new Option(text, value, false, selected));
++ }

I confirm the same problem in latest IE 7.

This should be marked as Fixed because the Hierarchical Select module now integrates with Content Taxonomy. http://drupal.org/project/hierarchical_select
