Manuscript viewer does not work at all in IE - check to see if anything can be done #68

Right now, the manuscript viewer page is blank in IE

It appears that the javascript isn't firing at all.

If we can't get this working in IE, we'll need to at least put up some kind of message indicating that.

this seems to imply that mirador 2 at some point worked with IE https://github.com/ProjectMirador/mirador/issues/1492

Working in IE9+ now. Use of incompatible modern JS APIs was the culprit. Also had to remove inclusion of modaal's JS and switch the onload approach to the jQuery way.
