title: jquery dialog in IE not showing
body: <p>I cannot get a modal dialog to render in IE. The screen goes dark (as in disabled) but the dialog itself is nowhere to be found. Behavior in Chrome is as expected; screen goes dark AND dialog appears. I have repeatedly cleared cache in IE and Chrome to confirm that this is not some sort of stale reference problem. </p>
  
  <p>I also played games with .hide().show() and  $("#waiting1").dialog('open') but with the same results.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;

      &lt;script src="/scripts/jquery-1.8.0.min.js" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
      &lt;script src="/scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.23.custom.min.js" type="text/javascript" &gt;&lt;/script&gt;

                      $("#waiting1").dialog();
  
                  });
  
             &lt;/script&gt;
