   We have a javascript code which will try access a value of a CRM Connector Widget on load of the page using the following code $find($(".​filedName").attr("id")).get_value(); which is throwing the following error that is breaking the entire page Unable to get property 'get_value' of undefined or null reference. Intresting this here is the same code is working fine in IE8, IE10, IE11, Chrome and Mozila browsers. Can you please adivce.

   Hello vmeesaraganda,
   
   In some browsers, your code will be executed before the API is ready to be used.
   
   Ensure that the code using $find is wrapped in a $(window).load(...) event.
   
   If that does not work, ensure that all of your $find calls are wrapped in the load event for Sys.Application:
   
   

   Sys.Application.add_load(function(){
    // ... $find code goes here.
   });
   

   
   Regards,
   Clinton

   But this is working fine even in IE 9 for some systems but not in my client system.

   Hello vmeesaraganda,
   
   JavaScript code is heavily dependant on 3 things: the client computer (speed/bandwidth), the loading order and the browser. I doubt the browser in this case has much to do with it in this case because it works on other IE9 browsers. Have you tried the Sys.Application.add_load function yet? Normally the function will only be executed when $find can return all components.
   
   Some IE9 machines you are testing with may be faster than others so they always load the page on time or sometimes they may load too fast in which case not everything on the page has finished initializing yet which could cause this error.
   
   Please try adding the Sys.Application.add_load(...) event inside of your $(window).load(...) event.
   
   Thanks,
   Clinton
