Question

I’ve got this 2 codes returning “script error alert” to me on Internet Explorer 8. What is wrong please (or missing)?

<script>
 $(".alert").alert('close');
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
    var $j = jQuery.noConflict()

    $j(function(){
        SyntaxHighlighter.all();
    });
    $j(window).load(function(){
        $j('.flexslider').flexslider({
           animation: "slide",
            start: function(slider){
               $('body').removeClass('loading');
            }
        }); 
    });
 </script>

The second I know that is because of this (but I dont know why?):

SyntaxHighlighter.all(); 

and this:

$('body').removeClass('loading');

Answer 1

If SyntaxHighlighter.all(); is causing a problem then you’ve probably forgotten to load the JavaScript that defines SyntaxHighlighter or perhaps the case is different than you’re trying to use.

This:

$('body').removeClass('loading');

will be a problem because you’ve called noConflict and that will return $ to whatever it was before jQuery tried to take it over. You should use the $j that noConflict gave you:

$j('body').removeClass('loading');
