Should website work with IE8?
Overall question: Any suggestions about what I should tell my corporate IT people so I can get their IE8 to read my library on the website?
Situation: I use Zotero standalone on my personal laptop (Win7, 64-bit), syncing to the website. I've recently started working at an organization with a tightly locked-down IT policy, which requires me to use IE8. OK, I figure, I'll use my web version to at least get access to my Zotero data, even if I don't have all the functionality. However, when I log in, I'm unable to see my library -- I get an "error on page" message, which leads to the following:

On my personal laptop (where I have IE9, 64-bit), the site seems to work fine.
Any suggestions about what I should tell the IT people here so I can get their IE8 to read my library on the website?
Thanks.

fcheslackIt should work again. In general we'll try to keep it working with IE8 for now, but it doesn't get tested as often or as extensively as other browsers, so if you notice issues let us know.
