ts_ce fails on IE 9

[jamesarosen]

The problem is that ts_ce is checking for name && window.ActiveXObject as a way of checking for IE, but only IE < 9 supports creating elements with the whole HTML fragment. IE 9 behaves like the other browsers and should use the else branch. See also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5344029/invalid-character-dom-exception-in-ie9

The following seems to work on IE9:

function ts_ce(tag, name) {
  var element;
  try {
    element = document.createElement('<'+tag+' name="'+name+'">');
  } catch(e) {
    element = document.createElement(tag);
    element.setAttribute('name',name);
  }
  return element;
}

See the comment on that commit for a suggestion regarding readability.

Also, I see you forked the project. I'd suggest maintaining that going forward. I'm not the original author of this project, I just put it into github for easy access on a project I did a few years ago.

I no longer use this plugin.
