jQuery is undefined exception in IE11

Question

In IE11 I get this exception

'jQuery' is undefined

I do not get this error in any other browser. The code that is causing the problem is

jQuery(document).ready(function(){

Any one know why is that and what might be causing the problem?

Answer 1

I came across the same issue in Internet Explorer 11. It occurs due to compatibility mode is auto set to Internet Explorer 7. Image is attached.

I use jQuery 2.2 in my project. It seems to be that only IE9 and upwards support for this version.

To force the compatibility mode use below meta tag.

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=11" >
