JS code from MailChimp causes error in IE (EASY fix below, please fix plugin!)

Hi,

I am getting an error in IE7 (could be other versions too):

A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug?
Line: 79
Error: Expected identifier, string or number

This is caused from the following JS code that’s injected into the header:

jQuery(function($) {
			$('.date-pick').datepicker({
				autoFocusNextInput: true,
				constrainInput: false,
				changeMonth: true,
				changeYear: true,
				beforeShow: function(input, inst) { $('#ui-datepicker-div').addClass('show'); },
				dateFormat: 'yy/mm/dd',
			});			

			d = new Date();
			$('.birthdate-pick').datepicker({
				autoFocusNextInput: true,
				constrainInput: false,
				changeMonth: true,
				changeYear: false,
				minDate: new Date(d.getFullYear(), 1-1, 1),
				maxDate: new Date(d.getFullYear(), 12-1, 31),
				beforeShow: function(input, inst) { $('#ui-datepicker-div').removeClass('show'); },
				dateFormat: 'mm/dd',
			});

		});

It’s a REALLY simple solution – just remove the last comma at the end of each list (IE doesn’t like those extra commas). So the correct code would be:

jQuery(function($) {
			$('.date-pick').datepicker({
				autoFocusNextInput: true,
				constrainInput: false,
				changeMonth: true,
				changeYear: true,
				beforeShow: function(input, inst) { $('#ui-datepicker-div').addClass('show'); },
				dateFormat: 'yy/mm/dd'
			});			

			d = new Date();
			$('.birthdate-pick').datepicker({
				autoFocusNextInput: true,
				constrainInput: false,
				changeMonth: true,
				changeYear: false,
				minDate: new Date(d.getFullYear(), 1-1, 1),
				maxDate: new Date(d.getFullYear(), 12-1, 31),
				beforeShow: function(input, inst) { $('#ui-datepicker-div').removeClass('show'); },
				dateFormat: 'mm/dd'
			});

		});

This should be changed in mailchimp.php lines 139 and 151.

If I change these myself, then I will not be able to get updates from future versions! So can the MailChimp folks please change this on their side?

Thanks!
Heather
