Can't get jQuery and IE to be friends

Question

Using jQuery and the Cycle plugin. Runs flawless in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and the latest version of Opera. Won't run in older versions of Opera, and of course, IE. I know its running Java, because its picking up the rollovers.

This is driving me batty. Hopefully its something simple. Here's the code...

$(document).ready(function() {
 $("#slideshow").css("overflow", "hidden");

 $("div#slides").cycle({
  fx: 'scrollHorz',
  speed:  'slow', 
  timeout: 0,
  prev: '#prev',
  next: '#next'
 }); 

Really appreciate the help guys.

Answer 1

Not sure what you want to do, are you sure that

$("#slideshow").css("overflow", "hidden");

is what you want to use? If you want something to be hidden, do this:

$("#slideshow").css("display", "none");

or better yet:

 $("#slideshow").hide();

Also, any ID's you have should be unique. So you shouldn't really have much of a need for a selector like div#slides. If you have multiple elements with the ID of slides, you have invalid HTML and are going to probably run into bigger problems...
