Currently, I\'m doing this:

This is a little old, but maybe someone will find my solution helpfull:

// Fix IE's indexOf Array
if (!Array.prototype.indexOf) {
    Array.prototype.indexOf = function (searchElement) {
        if (this == null) throw new TypeError();
        var t = Object(this);
        var len = t.length >>> 0;
        if (len === 0) return -1;
        var n = 0;
        if (arguments.length > 0) {
            n = Number(arguments[1]);
            if (n != n) n = 0;
            else if (n != 0 && n != Infinity && n != -Infinity) n = (n > 0 || -1) * Math.floor(Math.abs(n));
        }
        if (n >= len) return -1;
        var k = n >= 0 ? n : Math.max(len - Math.abs(n), 0);
        for (; k < len; k++) if (k in t && t[k] === searchElement) return k;
        return -1;
    }
}
// add hasClass support
if (!Element.prototype.hasClass) {
    Element.prototype.hasClass = function (classname) {
        if (this == null) throw new TypeError();
        return this.className.split(' ').indexOf(classname) === -1 ? false : true;
    }
}
