# JavaScript error on IE8

 * I have run into an issue using the Kiwi Logo Carousel plugin where the logos 
   are not displaying correctly on IE 6, 7, and 8. I believe it is caused by a JavaScript
   error.
 * It would appear the same problem can be demonstrated on the demo site ([http://getkiwi.org/plugins/logo-carousel/](http://getkiwi.org/plugins/logo-carousel/)),
   which gives the following error in the IE8 developer tools:
 *     ```
       Expected identifier, string or number
       logo-carousel, line 67 character 424
       ```
   
 * Which I have traced back to this statement:
    `jQuery(".kiwi-logo-carousel-example-
   2").bxSlider({new:"empty",useCSS:false});`
 * My thought was to update the load_javascript_parameters() function so that `new:"
   empty"` is never passed to bxSlider().
 * Later versions of IE seem to work fine.

 * The parameter “new” is not in the plugin by default.
    This extra parameter is
   most likely the error here.
 * Did you make any changes in the plugins code?
    If you didn’t, try to save the
   settings for the carousel again. This will refresh the parameters in the database.

 * Hi Bjorn. I have upgraded to version 1.6.1 and the problem is now fixed for me.
   I can’t re-create the problem on a fresh install, so I think it’s working fine
   now. Thank you.
 * Your demo site ([http://getkiwi.org/plugins/logo-carousel/](http://getkiwi.org/plugins/logo-carousel/))
   is still broken though. The line has changed, but it still has the `new:"empty"`
   in it, and it still causes an error for me in IE8.
 * `jQuery(".kiwi-logo-carousel-example-2").bxSlider({mode:"horizontal",speed:500,
   slideMargin:0,infiniteLoop:true,hideControlOnEnd:false,captions:false,ticker:
   false,tickerHover:false,adaptiveHeight:false,responsive:true,pager:false,controls:
   true,autoControls:false,minSlides:1,maxSlides:4,moveSlides:1,slideWidth:200,auto:
   true,pause:4000,new:"empty",useCSS:false});`
