jQuery click listener on <object> in IE failing

Question

$(\"#listView object.modal\").click(function(){
        // Get the ID of the clicked link:
        var link = $(this).closest(\"h2\").attr(\"title\");
        var id = $         


        

Answer 1

The strange thing is that is working in other browsers. Not that it doesn't work in IE. Have a look at this question. Flash objects will always consume the onclick event and not propagate it in javascript code.
