JavaScript not running on IE7 & 8 with no errors

Question

I am trying to make thecourtyardstanmer.co.uk work in IE7 and IE8 but I am having trouble as there are no console errors at all.

Could there be a reason JavaScript would not function but display nothing in console?

I have tried looking for trailing commas in objects and arrays as I know IE hates this but cant find any.

EDIT:

The one thing I do get in console is [cycle] terminating; zero elements found by selector which is wrong as there are elements in the cycle.

Thanks.

@Steve there was some messages in the console, so I presume yes. But no errors. Where can I check? — 472084

If you hit F12, the developer console should also appear but i don't know if you have to have script debugging enabled too. — Steve

[cycle] terminating; zero elements found by selector is being written (twice) to the console. and is being generated by the jQuery cycle plugin.

It could all be caused by your use of new HTML5 semantic markup but i cant see any kind of HTML5Shiv in order for these elements to render correctly in older version of IE, if they dont render properly it could be completly screwing the DOM structure causing your selectors to fail

Thanks, I have put the shiv in, and it seems to have made a big difference in IE7 but none in IE8. I think you are along the right lines as both cycle plugins do have elements in them

@Jleagle Checking your website now youve added the shiv im not seeing anymore console messages and it behaves identically in IE8 and IE9 now and functions in IE7 (although the top navigation menu needs some styling adjustments). N
