[Plugin: Image Widget] “Expected identifier, string or number” in IE8

One thing you might try is see if it’s a conflict with another plugin. If you can, try turning off other plugins and see if this still happens.

I don’t have IE (i’m on a mac and haven’t bothered to reinstall paralells) and honestly am not that great with javascript so i’m not sure how much i’ll be able to help beyond that. Anyone else have any ideas?

Try overwriting your js with this:
http://svn.wp-plugins.org/image-widget/trunk/image-widget.js

Let me know if that fixes it. If it does, i’ll commit the update to a new tag.
