VULAB-180 - IE vs. Survey Creation (The Showdown)

[electBlake]

So,

On thursday (or friday) in standup I said that internet explorer was  
giving vulab some problems. An entire section of the application  
(survey creation) wasn't working.

As it turns out it was a very simple fix, as IE did not like a  
specific function I was using.

I've given an indepth overview of the problem, the solution, and the  
reasons behind both respectively.

Take a look at the explanations and the simple patch I created:
