Question

Using the latest Jquery UI Multiselect it works fine in firefox, chrome

but in IE8 the options are blank as shown here

I am using the following libraries
jquery-1.7.2.min.js
jquery-ui-1.8.20.custom.min.js

Any ideas, would be much appreciated.

Answer 1

Solved it,
There is an issue with the way you add the options to a list in JQuery in IE 8
I was using

$('#foldersBUSelect').append( new Option(folderName,folderID,false,nowSelected) );

when I should be doing the following which IE 8 likes

$("#foldersBUSelect").append( "<option selected='selected' value='" + folderID + "'>" + folderName + "</option>" );
