This function updates my content using the .load method from JQuery. The code works as intended on Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, but does not work at all in IE8 nor IE9.
Here is its content:
$(function(){
var newHash='';
$contentwrapper = $("#contentwrapper");
$("nav").delegate(".menuOptions", "click", function()
{
window.location.hash = $(this).attr("href");
return false;
});
$(window).bind('hashchange', function()
{
newHash = window.location.hash.substring(1);
$contentwrapper.load(newHash + " #contentcolumn");
setTimeout(TitleUpdater, 200);
});
});
function TitleUpdater()
{
top.document.title=$("#contentcolumn").attr("title");
}
I would like to know how to make this code compatible with Internet Explorer! Thank you.
Edit: On Firefox and Chrome, this code only replaces one big <div id="contentcolumn">...</div> and all the style around stays the same as it was before the script execution. While IE8 and IE9 just remove ALL my html code by <div id="contentcolumn">...</div> (it even writes over the head and body tags). This is really weird!
Here is index.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>

When i changed my href to start with # like this:
…
It start working on IE as well!
My guess is that window.location.hash does not work on IE… and when i added “#” by hand it solved the problem.
Thanks everyone for trying to help !
