JS is failing in IE8 due to strange error

I have a large javaScript file, managing all kinds of UI elements. It works perfectly in FF, chrome and Safari, but in IE it falls over.

I loaded it into IE8 to use the JS debugger, and it points to this line:

var myFooter = false;

and claims: Object doesn't support this property or method.

Edit

It seems to have a problem with this function, specifically the var declaration

function live_test(){
    var active_project;
    active_project = $("div.project_holder.active");
    $("#circles img.link.active").removeClass('active');
    $("#circles img.link").each(function(){

        if ($(this).data('project')[0] == active_project[0]){
            $(this).addClass("active");
        }
    });
}

Problem was solved by changing each $ for jQuery

As it lives in Wordpress, it had noConlict turned on.

check to see if you have an extra comma or something

Throw your JS code in jslint.com
