Problem/Motivation

The jQuery Placeholder library in use requires at least jQuery version 1.6 or higher. Drupal 7 ships with version 1.4. Due to this discrepancy, the module breaks javascript functionality in IE.

Proposed resolution

Add jQuery Update as a dependency and check to make sure a version greater or equal to 1.6 is installed.

Ran into this exact same issue. You can use the older version of jQuery placeholder instead of jQuery update.

I just tried a vanilla install of Drupal7 with the v2.0.8 version of jquery.placeholder.js and had no issues.

Please reopen with exact steps to reproduce if you can show that there is a JS error with the latest version of everything
