Object Expected Error In Javascript While Calling A Function

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up “Object expected” error using jQuery only in IE8 up vote 5 down vote favorite 1 I'm getting an error only in IE (v8, object expected error in javascript in ie8 I don't know if it happens in older IE versions, but it does not occur in Chrome or Firefox) which brings me the following message when I use IE dev tool's debbuger: Breaking on JSScript runtime error - Object Expected Here is my affected code: $('#deviceProfileSelection').change(function() { //affected line!!!! // rest of my code... }); This element #deviceProfileSelection is defined as the following: object expected error in javascript onclick I've already tried defining the .change listener into a $(document).ready(function () {}); but no success at all. Any other idea? EDIT I was trying to include a div using a PHP decision structure, where if a condition was true, it should print a div. But, actually it wasn't printing, I mean, it wasn't printing the opening tag 'div', only the closing tag 'div'. The browsers could interpret this error, but IE8, and this IE inability was causing the issue. javascript jquery html internet-explorer internet-explorer-8 share|improve this question edited Aug 17 '15 at 16:36 asked Aug 2 '13 at 15:16 Victor F 3681420 3 do you have jQuery included on the page before attempting to call $? –jbabey Aug 2 '13 at 15:18 1 What version jQuery are you using? –putvande Aug 2 '13 at 15:20 4 please note that jQuery v2.x does not support IE8. If you have jQuery v2, you will need to use v1.x instead. –Spudley Aug 2 '13 at 15:22 Could you show the code that is inside this function? –Adaz Aug 2 '13 at 15:23 add a comment| 5 Answers 5 active oldest votes up vote 3 down vote accepted The problem is that you haven't added jQuery into your code at all. Add the following inside the
tag: And in the file remote.js: function remoteFunction() { alert('In remote function'); } You object expected would expect the output in this order: Before loading remote.js After loading remote.js In remote function IE gives an error message "Object Expected" because it calls the function remoteFunction() prematurely. It calls before loading the file remote.js, which contain the declaration of remoteFunction(). This is another unexpected behavior from IE. Fortunately, it can be corrected by adding the attribute defer="defer" to object expected error second script invocation. This will specifically prevent IE from executing in order to give a correct output. Other browsers are not affected by the change.Print -- Was this information helpful?

We do that with the style and format of our responses. Here are five guidelines: Keep it conversational. When answering questions, write like you speak. Imagine you're explaining something to a trusted friend, using simple, everyday language. Avoid jargon and technical terms when possible. When no other word will do, explain technical terms in plain English. Be clear and state the answer right up front. Ask yourself what specific information the person really needs and then provide it. Stick to the topic and avoid unnecessary details. Break information down into a numbered or bulleted list and highlight the most important details in bold. Be concise. Aim for no more than two short sentences in a paragraph, and try to keep paragraphs to two lines. A wall of text can look intimidating and many won't read it, so break it up.
