jQuery .load() not working in IE10

Question

I am having trouble with IE 10 and jQuery .load(). I have a PHP page that I load once the website proper has loaded:

$(document).ready( function() { 
    $(\'#wo         


        

Answer 1

Try url encoding the character in the url

$(document).ready( function() { 
    $('#words').html('<div id="loading"><div id="loading-text">Analyzing frequency data...</div><div id="loading-image"><img src="loading.gif"></div></div>');
    $('#words').load('translate.php?character='+encodeURIComponent('<?php echo $character1;?>'));
});
