jQuery .load method not firing on IE9

Question

I have 4 divs (class=mydiv), each with an image in, the load method fires on all other browsers I've tested but it does not fire on IE9.0. I don't know if it works in any other IE.

$.noConflict();

jQuery(document).ready(function(){

    jQuery('.mydiv img').load(function(){

        alert("fired");

    });

});

Tried using these jQuery versions:

1.4.2
1.5.2
1.6.2
1.5.1rc1

Check if `prop('complete')` is true and call the callback too. — alex, Jul 29 '11 at 09:00
What are you trying to load into the img element? Seems to me you need to recheck the documentation of the function; http://api.jquery.com/load/ — Thizzer, Jul 29 '11 at 09:07

I think you are doing soething wrong because i tested this fiddle in IE9 and it works: http://jsfiddle.net/za9AB/ — Nicola Peluchetti, Jul 29 '11 at 09:13
the jsfiddle isn't working on my IE 9.0.8112.16421 (Vista SP2). Tried compatibility view and normal view. Works on Firefox and Chrome though. — Chris, Jul 29 '11 at 09:21

I had the same problem and solved using:

if ($.browser.msie && parseInt($.browser.version) < 10) {
    window.onload = new function() {
        console.log('LOADED IE');
    }
} else {
    $(window).load(function(){
        console.log('LOADED');
    })
}

According to Shankar Cabus, you can modify by:

if ($.browser.msie) { // For IE only
    $('.mydiv img').onload = new function() {
        alert("fired");
    }
} else {
    $('.mydiv img').load(function(){
        alert("fired");
    })
}

Since you want to do something after $('.mydiv img') loaded, but not window loaded. Hope this helps.
