color.js triggers errors on IE #26

Closed tomws closed 13 years ago

Any time I try to set color with jquery (using .css or .animate()), IE 6 and 8 are giving me color.js errors. IE8 sample (IE6 issues the same error for line 283):

This seems to be the results of IE's lack of support for rgba.

jquery core worked around this with a try/catch block (https://github.com/jquery/jquery/commit/2ca36598954759c5b5dce569a39c52b981ed4ab2#diff-0). I did the same to my local copy as a quick-fix. Another rgba support method or a css property check may be better. If testing css property, I wonder whether an MS filter (http://dimox.net/cross-browser-rgba-support/) could be used in place of rgba to provide the same user experience.
