Nivo Slider is causing IE 8 & 7 to crash on load. Updating to Nivo Slider 3.1 didn't seem to help. Any suggestions?

Most slider-related issues shouldn't be caused by the Nivo Slider module; they are issues with the Nivo Slider jQuery plugin. The module simply provides a configuration interface for adding the plugin to your site.

For issues with the plugin itself, I'd suggest filing a bug report on the Github issues page.

Well, funny thing is, i can view their website (http://nivo.dev7studios.com/) fine on IE 8 on XP. But when I try to view my site using this module, it crash.

IE8 and below doesn't crash if it's in compatibility mode.

Just to update. I don't have the same issue when I use Views Nivo Slider instead. Even tried replicating it on my test server with the same results.

This is obviously not "works as designed" since the issue is obviously with this module, and not the jquery plugin.

This isn't "obviously an issue with this module" since I can't duplicate your issue and there haven't been any additional comments on this issue from other users of the module. ;)

Attached is a screenshot of IE8 displaying a slideshow just fine, in standards mode, using Nivo Slider 7.x-1.8 and jQuery Nivo Slider v3.1.

You haven't posted any information (installed modules and themes, JavaScript console errors, website URL, etc) to try and help troubleshoot the issue, so there isn't anything that can be done to help determine the cause of, or solution to, the problem.

The issue was closed without even asking for more details and "assumed" answered. It's obvious that you don't even bother to read the rest of the post till i re-opened it again. So feel free to delete this post. It's not worth my time.
