SCAYT doesn't work in IE9

[Meriah]

I can't enable the plugin in IE9, when I try an error occurs - msg:

SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'hasAttribute' loaderbase.js, line 3425 character 1

Error is in file:

I have managed to reproduce this problem only in quirks mode enabled by IE development tools which is not valid method and we do not support it. It sometimes, as in this example, may give different results than in reality (Regular users don't turn on quirks mode in development tools).

Proper way to test quirks mode is inserting this tag into page

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=5" />

or not using the doc type for example. When using proper method there is no error.

Anyway this problem occurs in scayt code so you might want to report it to them.

WebSpellChecker.net confirms the problem in SCAYT core for IE9 quirks mode. IE running any other mode does not have this problem.
