title: MVC VS2012 jquery.validate.js error in IE: Unable to get property 'call' of undefined or null reference (line 1234)
body: <p>I'm getting this error only in IE in my MVC site:</p>
  
  <p>SCRIPT5007: Unable to get property 'call' of undefined or null reference 
  jquery.validate.js, line 1234 character 5</p>
  
  <p>I've looked around quite a bit for answers, and cannot find a solution. Chrome works fine. When I Google the exact error message, I was led here: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14357416/asp-net-mvc-4-jquery-validation-script-bundle-not-working">script bundle not working</a>, but answers there didn't help me.</p>
  
  <p>I tried updating my jQuery and jQuery validation plugins via Visual Studio NuGet package manager. I upgraded jQuery to version 2.0.3 and jQuery Validation 1.11.1. I think I had jQuery 1.9.x before. This had no effect.</p>
  
  <p>I believe my bundles are standard:</p>
  
  <pre><code>bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jquery").Include(
                      "~/Scripts/jquery-{version}.js"));
  
  bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jqueryui").Include(
                      "~/Scripts/jquery-ui-{version}.js"));
  
  bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jqueryval").Include(
                      "~/Scripts/jquery.unobtrusive*",
                      "~/Scripts/jquery.validate*"));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and at the tail end of my layout page, these are my Scripts.Render calls:</p>
  
  <pre><code>        @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")
          @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jqueryui")
          @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jqueryval")
          @RenderSection("Scripts", false)
      &lt;/body&gt;    
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>any help is greatly appreciated.</p>
