Question

1. Is it possible to get a javascript related error only in IE9 with Windows 7 Professional and not in IE9 with Windows Enterprise?
2. Can there be any difference in the way IE9 behaves with respect to javascript between a 32-bit Windows 7 and a 64-bit Windows 7?

Please help me with this. The full javascript function is below.

function foo() {
    var isChecked = false;
    var checkBoxField = "MyCheckBox1";
    for(j=0;j<document.forms[0].elements.length;j++) {
        if(document.forms[0].elements[j].name.search(checkBoxField) == 0) {
            if (document.forms[0].elements[j].checked == true) { 
                isChecked = true;
            }
        }
    }
    alert(isChecked);
}

The isChecked variable has to be true when the checkBoxField is checked. It is true in IE9-Windows 7 Enterprise Edition (Not sure about 32-bit or 64-bit) and it is false in IE9-Windows 7 Professional Edition (32-bit)

Apologies. After looking at the IE settings in the exact machine where the issue occurs, it is clear that it is due to caching. The setting Preserve Favorites website data preserves the old js file and is not downloading the updated version (even if we try to clear cookies, history, temporary files etc). Once that setting is unchecked – history, cache cleared everything started working.
Cheers,
