javascript - $(window).load() in IE?

Question

Recently I ran into a mysterious problem that IE (6-8) is keeping throwing me an error. I don't know if this is the problem, but I think it is.

Open up the F12 developer tools in a jQuery included website, enter

$(window).load(function(){
     alert("Wont able to see me");
});

And an error will popup:

"Unable to get value of the property 'slice': object is null or undefined"

Did I do anything wrong, or anything else???

I recently found a work-around for IE not recognizing $(window).load()...

window.onload = function() {
    alert("See me, hear me, touch me!");
};

This is a little different than $(function(){}) as it executes after all elements are loaded as opposed to when the DOM is ready.

I recently implemented this in another project and it worked wonderfully.
