Posted by gony on June 8, 2010 at 1:07pm

I have installed lastest Maphilight plugin for D6 along iwth jquery plugin. Works fine in FireFox, but in IE8 i get following javascript error:

However if I goto http://davidlynch.org/js/maphilight/docs/demo_usa.html in IE8 it works fine.

Could the issue be the fact that the demo is using jquery-1.4.2.min.js whereas via drupal my site is using a diff version of jquery:

There an issue in the module's issue queue with a workaround for the ie8 problem.
