after removing } im getting another error: ie

$(“#toHide”).show().blockUI is not a

Answer 1

You have an unmatched brace. The last line should be

$.unblockUI();

EDIT

.blockUI()

cannot be called on any object except for the jQuery object. So try:

var $ = jQuery.noConflict();
$.blockUI();
$('#toHide').show(); 
setTimeout('document.getElementById("safeForm15").submit()', 100); 
$.unblockUI();
