Please add semicolon at the end of minified file because missing semicolon caused javascript error at following place:

!function(e,t){ /* bowser minified code*/})

(function( jQuery, window, undefined ) {...})( jQuery, window );

the semicolon is not required and would not cause a js error on its own. it could cause an error if concatenating with other scripts. if that is the case, I would recommend using a tool that concatenates intelligently by inserting semicolons between concatenated scripts.
