$(item).load() script breaking (only in IE11), works in developer tools

Vote count:

I have function that looks like this:

function foo(item) {
    var url = $(item).attr("data-url");
    if (url && url.length > 0) {
        $(item).load(url);
    }
}

This function is triggered by a drop downs .change() event. The load() calls out to an MVC4 Partial View, which returns the html. This all works fine and dandy in Chrome and Firefox, but it doesn't work in IE11 (I haven't tested in older versions of IE since I don't support those in this circumstance). However, as soon as I open the Developer Tools in IE, everything works perfectly; I don't have to do anything besides hit F12 for it to work.

I do not have any "console" code in my js files, the server is pushing back valid HTML, and I can't find any other issues to look into.

I hate to make such an open ended question, but can you give me some advice on what to look for? The only things I could find online were to pull out any "console" code (which I didn't have in the first place).

Any suggestions/guidance is greatly appreciated.
