Function works in all browsers except =< ie8
<p>My function works in all browsers except ie8 and below. Can anyone tell me what the problem is and possibly how to fix it? Thanks!</p>

<pre><code>var match;
var chords = 
['C','C#','D','D#','E','F','F#','G','G#','A','A#','B','C','Db','D','Eb','E','F','Gb','G','Ab','A','Bb','B','C'];
var chords2 = 
['C','Db','D','Eb','E','F','Gb','G','Ab','A','Bb','B','C','C#','D','D#','E','F','F#','G','G#','A','A#','C'];
var chordRegex = /C#|D#|F#|G#|A#|Db|Eb|Gb|Ab|Bb|C|D|E|F|G|A|B/g;

function transposeUp(x) {
    $('.chord'+x).each(function(){
        ///// initializes variables /////
        var currentChord = $(this).text(); // gatheres each object
        var output = "";
        var parts = currentChord.split(chordRegex);
        var index = 0;
        /////////////////////////////////
        while (match = chordRegex.exec(currentChord)){
            var chordIndex = chords.indexOf(match[0]);
            output += parts[index++] + chords[chordIndex+1];
        }
        output += parts[index];
        $(this).text(output);
    });
}

function transposeDown(x){
$('.chord'+x).each(function(){
    var currentChord = $(this).text(); // gatheres each object
    var output = "";
    var parts = currentChord.split(chordRegex);
    var index = 0;
    while (match = chordRegex.exec(currentChord)){
        var chordIndex = chords2.indexOf(match[0],1);
        output += parts[index++] + chords2[chordIndex-1];
    }
    output += parts[index];
    $(this).text(output);
});
}
</code></pre>

<p><strong>EDIT</strong></p>

<p>I just found out that it has to do with the split method as well. I just can't get it fixed. The indexOf prototype works now, but tht function still isn't working but I get an error that says chordRegex is not an object. For some reason it isn't working.</p>
