SCRPT5039: Redeclaration of const property line 1 character 1
line1: var editObj = null;
This is the beginning of the file and I checked to make sure that variable is not in any other js files being called. Is it saying that I redeclare it later? (if so that line reference is not useful) or what is wrong with this?
EDIT: Fixed it. For me, anyway. I got this error before the redeclaration error:
This suggests that IE finds what it thinks is an error, so loads the page again in Quirks mode. Loading the page twice makes it think everything is declared twice. So the solution is to find what IE didn’t like.
First I ran the page through the online HTML validator. Next I ran my javascript through jsLint. After all that, IE9 seemed happy. And as a bonus I have better quality code. I hope.
