jquery image slider not working in ie8

I have used an image slider (Lean Slider) on my website and it works great in IE9+, FF, Chrome, but for some reason doesn't work in IE8.

I've been trying to solve this for days and am really stuck! Would be extremely grateful for any help!

Can anyone work this out and why its not working in IE8?

HTML CODE :

    <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script src="http://www.berkshire.co.za/js/lean-slider.js"></script>

I was having problems too to work with Lean Slider in Internet Explorer 8. I fixed this by adding a comment in file "sample-styles.css", see the line "display: block;" and now the controlNav works and navBar too, links works and slide fine in all others browsers.

.lean-slider-slide {
  /*display: block;*/
  position: relative;
  opacity: 0;
  -webkit-transition: opacity 0.6s linear;
  -moz-transition: opacity 0.6s linear;
  -ms-transition: opacity 0.6s linear;
  -o-transition: opacity 0.6s linear;
  transition: opacity 0.6s linear;
}
