I have a site that uses jQuery within the Codeigniter framework. It works perfectly in both Firefox and Chrome. However in IE the getJSON does not work, jQuery load() works but not getJSON. Ive tried the $.ajaxSetup{{cache:false}} among others but no joy.

<p>The following table lists the League Champions and sides who finished Second. Goal differnece did not count so occassionally Play-offs were needed. An exception is the case of the 94-95 season where the League was split into two groups so a Play-off was mandatory. In 96-97 the season had Two divisions, the table only shows details of the Premier Division with First Division details in the footnotes</p>

</html>Right then, it seems that IE had a problem with the js file. It does not like the fact I have the global 'url' variable outside of all functions. So I had to name this variable within the (document).ready(function{}). Also I had the ajaxSuccess and ajaxError functions operating on their own, they also needed to be brought within the (document).ready function, merely naming the url variable inside them individually did not work. Basically everything needs to be wrapped in one main function. this link here inspired the solution http://patrickgibson.com/news/andsuch/000202.php
