    copied!<p>I have the following code which works in FF / Chrome</p> <pre><code>var stack = [Array.prototype.slice.call(document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].childNodes)], nodes, node, parent, text, offset; while (stack.length) { nodes = stack.pop(); for (var i=0, n=nodes.length; i&lt;n; ++i) { node = nodes[i]; switch (node.nodeType) { case Node.ELEMENT_NODE: if (node.nodeName.toUpperCase() !== "SCRIPT") { stack.push(Array.prototype.slice.call(node.childNodes)); } break; case Node.TEXT_NODE: text = node.nodeValue; offset = text.indexOf("[test="); if (offset &gt;= 0 &amp;&amp; text.substr(offset).match(/^(\[test=(\d+)\])/)) { parent = node.parentNode; var before = document.createTextNode(text.substr(0, offset)); link = document.createElement("a"), after = document.createTextNode(text.substr(offset + RegExp.$1.length)); link.appendChild(document.createTextNode(text.substr(offset, RegExp.$1.length))); link.setAttribute("href", "http://example.com/" + RegExp.$2); parent.insertBefore(after, node); parent.insertBefore(link, after); parent.insertBefore(before, link); parent.removeChild(node); stack.push([after]); } } } } </code></pre> <p>Basically what it does is if it finds [test=25] in the page it converts it to a link which points to example.com/25</p> <p>In IE I get the following error: JScript Object Expected on first line:</p> <pre><code>var stack = [Array.prototype.slice.call(document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].childNodes)], nodes, node, parent, text, offset; </code></pre> <p>This error occurs in both IE7 and IE8.</p> <p>Any help would be appreciated.</p> <p>Thanks.</p>
