title: IE (all versions) following href instead of executing JS
body: <p>I am having a problem with IE (who doesn't) in all versions of the browser. It works fine in every other browser. </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="&lt;?php echo base_url() ?&gt;pages/delete_page/&lt;?php echo $row-&gt;id; ?&gt;" class="delete" data-uid="&lt;?php echo $row-&gt;id; ?&gt;"&gt;
      &lt;i class="icon-cancel"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span class="delete_tooltip"&gt;delete page&lt;/span&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>That is my <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> tag, and it is pretty simple.</p>
  
  <p>Basically IE is following the href and not executing the JS at all. If I remove the link from the href, it just sends it back to the homepage. </p>
  
  <p>I am using a plugin to load a modal box and like I said, everything works fine in every browser. </p>
  
  <pre><code>$('.delete').click(function(e) {    
    console.log($('#modal-'+$(this).data('uid')));    // Button which will activate our modal
    $('#modal-'+$(this).data('uid')).reveal({                // The item which will be opened with reveal
        animation: 'fadeAndPop',              // fade, fadeAndPop, none
        animationspeed: 400,            // how fast animtions are
        closeonbackgroundclick: false,   // if you click background will modal close?
        dismissmodalclass: 'modal_cancel'      // the class of a button or element that will close an open modal
    });
    return false;
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And that is the JS that calls the plugin to that link.</p>
  
  <p>Any help will be much appreciated.</p>
