I have broken my Rails 3.1 app for IE, jQuery events are not responding

Question

Only Internet Explorer is not working (I happen to be using version 8, but 7 and 9 are not working either). I have this code in my application.js file:

$(".attrs").live('click',function() {
    $("#product_application_" + $("#product_application_page_attribute").val()).val($(this).text());
    hash = { type: "POST", url: "brands/get_attributes", data: $("#attributeform").serialize() };
    $.bbq.pushState(hash);
    return false;
});

IE does NOTHING when I click on the elements that this event is bound to. What have I done?

might have something to do with pushState not supported on IE? (will be on IE 10 I think) — jipiboily, Jan 25 '12 at 18:27

It might be due to the fact that pushState is not supported by IE8. More details here.

That was definitely it. I had to put an explicit post in there. But now every other browser posts twice. I have to find a way to detect the browser. – AKWF Jan 27 '12 at 05:23
