gistfile1.js

$(document).ready(function(){

    // original line that might trigger IE warning
    // $(":button").button();
    
    var $allButtons = $(":button");
    var buttonCount = $allButtons.size();
    var buttonized;
    for(var i = 0; i < buttonCount; i = i + 100){
        buttonized = applyButtons($allButtons, i, 100);
        setTimeout(buttonized, 10);        
    }    
});

function applyButtons(allButtons, i, batchSize){
    return (function(){
        allButtons.slice(i ,(i + batchSize)).button();
    });
