const handler = function (event) = SCRIPT1002: Syntax error (IE10)

Question

We're boggling our ind over a syntax error that obstructs a calculating script in IE10 and below. It traditionally works fine in every other browser.

The error says:

SCRIPT1002: Syntax error (line 11, char 12)
const handler = function (event) {

Anyone has an idea where things get wrong please?

Did you try it without const? – progsource Apr 17 '15 at 16:59 — progsource, Apr 17 '15 at 16:59

Consider using the ALL_CAPS convention to show that the variable should not be changed. link

var HANDLER = function (event) {

Thanks, I found out that when I replace const with var in this script, the error is solved and that the script runs ok.
