ADF Javascript error in MS IE v 8.0.6001.18702

Question

Hi,
I'm using jdeveloper v11.1.2.0.0. I have a login page with language, username, password fields. Language is af:selectonechoice and is using ppr to re-render the page on language change. It's working fine with FireFox 4 and chrome. But when I open the page in IE (8.0.6001.18702), it's showing the following javascript error, and I cannot even submit the login details(eventhough I'm not changing language). The error is,
User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; the Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; NET CLR 2.0.50727)

        <description>If this parameter is true, there will be an automatic check of the modification date of your JSPs, and saved state will be discarded when JSP's change. It will also automatically check if your skinning css files have changed without you having to restart the server. This makes development easier, but adds overhead.
