title: jQuery's .load() not working in IE - but fine in Firefox, Chrome and Safari
body: <p>I'm hitting my head on the wall against this one ...</p>
  
  <p>I have the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$("#home").click(function(e) {
      $(".tabs").attr("src","tabs-home.gif");
      $(".islice").hide('fast');
      $(".islice").load("home.html");
      $(".islice").show('fast');  
      e.preventDefault();
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It works perfectly fine in Firefox, Safari and Chrome, but IE only runs attr() and does not do either the hide/show or the load. I tried removing the hide and show and it still does not work.</p>
  
  <p>IE reports no syntax errors, even with DebugBar. What could I be doing wrong?</p>
