I have been writing a JavaScript library for a few weeks now and it works brilliantly in Firefox, Chrome and Safari. I had not tested it in IE until recently. I do not own a Windows box so after testing it on my friends and realising it wasnt working I started going over my code for things that could be causing it to break.
So far I have found nothing. I could not find any descriptions of the errors in the browser while I was there either. So I wondered if anyone could run my test script in an IE browser (6, 7 or 8) and let me know any information they can find as to why it crashed.
Please ignore any information saying it works in IE6, I put that up there after testing it through http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/
I just assumed it was working because I could set transparency and size via my script and see it run in this tool.
Here is the link to my GitHub repository: https://github.com/Wolfy87/Spark
If you download it and run spark.html it will attempt to run all of my functions from the library.
So if anyone could be kind enough to run it in IE and either let me know what errors they are getting and possibly how to fix them then I will be extreamly grateful.
Thank you in advance.

The problem is when trying to load README.md file.
It’s an issue related to permission as you see above.
everything except loading and printing this file is OK on IE8.
