IE 8 displaying the id and not the text of the taxonomy term

stBorchert -

Thanks for the tip. The dev version worked as advertised when the JS was not called. This will be a good workaround until I can figure out the cause of the problem.
After some more investigation and trial and error, I discovered that the IE8 browser did have js enabled, and the SHS drop-down DID work on a simple content type. The SHS will STOP working when it is wrapped in a multi-page section!

I've tried to compress the JS, thinking that may be why the JS is being ignored for SHS by IE, but no luck.

To reproduce: Make one SHS dropdown as the first one in a content type. Them make a multi-page section, then tuck a SHS dropdown INSIDE one of the pages of one of the sections.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts/tips.

PS How muck trouble will I be in if I go live with a dev version of the module?

I am using the fieldsets module to create a page division then a page within that.
Then in the "manage fields" section of the content type (project) I move the
'Department' under that page division. And assign shs as its widget.

I'm on a bus to Boston with sketchy wifi. More later if y need it.

Thanks!

I'm sorry, I mis-spoke. I'm using fieldGROUP module to group fields into fieldsets in the content type. (v-tabs, h-tabs, pages, divs, accordion). I think the problem in IE may be that the HSH js in not getting picked up when the select list in inside a field-group. Kinda like a cloaking device, but in a bad way.

Using the dev version has solved my issue for now, so IE folks will see the hierarchical drop-down, it will just be in One window that looks like:

food
-meat
-fruit
--red fruit
---apples
---cherries
--blue fruit
---blue berries

One last thought (if I'm not pushing my luck) Using HSH in views is killer good! BUT if I could get the 'more' arrows AND the node total in views, I'd give up coding forever! And if it could have an aggregate behavior that too would be bonus.

So the above choice fruit in an exposed views filter would look like "fruit(3) >" AND when I select that as the filter in SHS, I get apples, cherries AND blue berries in my view.

Thanks for a thin, powerful and helpful module!
