Advanced review page not showing records in IE #344

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open the Advanced Review page in IE
2. Click the Map tab
3. Note that the records are not drawn on the map

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should see records drawn on the map, but they are not there at all.

As a side note, I noticed that in r401 on core, the list, maps, etc are not 
appearing at all on the page.

More information:
Also does not work in Firefox 9.0.1 on Windows but does in Firefox 15.0 Ubuntu. 
 Changing the KML request from POST to GET fixes this in Firefox 9.0.1 on 
Windows, but does not fix the issue in IE.

The issue is that the "placeholder" attribute is not supported in IE.

Used a library to solve this:
https://github.com/miketaylr/jQuery-html5-placeholder

This library was selected over numerous others because instead of modifying the 
input value, it creates a label.  It also defers to the default placeholder 
handling in the browser where available.
