SerializeArray not working in IE10

Question

I am using serializeArray to send form data to a php page. When the browser (ie10) is in standards mode, it doesn't work. However, when the browser is in quirks mode it works fine. I know that means there is some html that is not standards compliant, but I don't see any problems with what I am doing. Any help would be appreciated.

JavaScript

$("button.recover").on('click', function(){
    var data = $("form#editTemplate").serializeArray();
    data.push({name: 'recover', value: 1});
    console.log(data);

    $.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: 'content/managed_templates/deleteTemplate.php',
        data: data,
        success: function (data){
            $("div.alerts").html(data).fadeIn().delay(1500).fadeOut();

            $("button.submit").after("<button type='button' class='delete' <?php echo $deleteRights ?> >Delete</button>");
            $("button.recover").remove();
        }
    });
});

HTML

    <form id = 'edittemplate' ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" method = "POST" action ="content/managed_templates/savemanagedtemplate.php" >
