jQuery 1.4.4, Opera 10.63 & DataTables 1.74 incompatibility

ioncache

When using DataTables with jQuery 1.4.4 in Opera, I receive the following errors:

----------

Hi ioncache,

Is it possible for you to set up a page where you are using jQuery 1.4.4 and this error occurs so I can see it in action? I've not come across this issue before, but interesting that it crops up with jQuery 1.4.4 and not before.

Thanks,
Allan

Allan,

I just stumbled upon this issue myself while doing some compatibility testing for the site I'm developing. You can find the error in full force here: http://bsu.edu/libraries/wmr/search.php?SEARCH_ID=2

My project uses jQuery 1.4.4 and DataTables 1.7.4, both in their minified forms.

Note that the error is resolved in the update to Opera 11. Let me know if you need any other information!

Thanks,
Daniel
