Slideshow vs. Internet (curse!) Explorer

Man! What a waste of time.

Simple jQuery slideshow, working great in Safari, Chrome, Firefox…. then checked IE7.  In IE image would appear for the set interval, then disappear for same interval, then next image, then interval, etc.  I expect CSS problems, but Javascript too? Curse!

Turned out that having curved corners and other HTML5 goodness applied using the PIE method to get them to work in IE lt9 versions was creating new siblings in the DOM, of course. Finally looking at IE generated source showed new “<css3-container>” elements next to <a>, <div> etc, which were messing up “next” selector method from jQuery.

To fix, just removed the curved-corner classes and presto chango, Robert remains your mother’s brother. Live and learn.

Simple demo version on my examples page.
