[Tim Telcik]

We have seen this problem too with Microsoft IE 7/8/9.

It is due to a bug in Alloy 1.0.1 (which was derived from a nightly build of YUL 3.2.0).

This issue was also raised in ticket # LPS-15427

http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-15427

and has apparently been fixed in trunk and 6.0.x (http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPP-979).

We don't have access to LPP-979 to review the change, but have patched the offending JS files locally in our EXT plugin.
