We can call this a “hacky” solution because, like the other members of this thread, I don’t know exactly what this script is being used for. Here’s the code I used:

/*  FlexSlider
/* ------------------------------------ */
	var firstImage = jQuery('.flexslider').find('img').filter(':first'),
		checkforloaded = setInterval(function() {
			var image = firstImage.get(0);
			if ( image ) {
				if (image.complete || image.readyState == 'complete' || image.readyState == 4) {
					clearInterval(checkforloaded);
					jQuery('.flexslider').flexslider({
						animation: "slide",
						useCSS: false, // Fix iPad flickering issue
						slideshow: false,
						directionNav: true,
						controlNav: true,
						pauseOnHover: true,
						slideshowSpeed: 7000,
						animationSpeed: 400,
						smoothHeight: true,
						touch: false
					});
				}
			}
		}, 20);

	$('select').dropkick();
});

Note that I enclosed the entire “if (image.complete || image.readyState == ‘complete’ || image.readyState == 4)” statement in an “if( image )” statement. Now, if image isn’t defined, it never gets to the code that was throwing an error.

Temporary fix until I can figure out what’s really up with this theme’s code and whether this is robust.
