setInterval Breaks Page To Be Shown

Question

I have that line of code:

var checkExist5 = setInterval(function() {
    if (lock == 5 && $("#id1").length && $("#id2").length) {            
        console.log("debug");
        clearInterval(checkExist5);           
        lock = -1;
    }
}, 100);

it works at Firefox but it breaks the page at Internet Explorer. It does not give any error at console but the page is not shown (ie 9). What may be the reason?

There is nothing wrong with that code. Is the dev tool's console open when it runs? — epascarello, Oct 09 '14 at 19:35
Throw in alert or debugger statements to see if they are hit? — Brian Mains, Oct 09 '14 at 19:36
I've tried it with both it is open and not. Is it related to I should do: ` down vote accepted Try disabling the cache with ajaxSetup $.ajaxSetup ({ // Disable caching of AJAX responses */ cache: false });` ? — kamaci, Oct 09 '14 at 19:37

I found the reason. It was because of

console.log("debug");

It was not working at Internet Explorer 9. There is an explanation here: Does IE9 support console.log, and is it a real function?
