Invalid argument in IE9.js (code 0) in Line: 6 Char: 28214

Question

I am using IE8 in compatibility view and while this does produce acceptable rendering, this only happens after a refresh.

When the page is first loaded, it wouldn't display at all (staying at the previous page) and only give this error:

Invalid argument
IE9.js
Code: 0
Line: 6
Char: 28214 

My searches for a solution to this problem yielded the following old thread which doesn't provide any solution.

It does however provide a link to the minimal reproducible test case that demonstrates this bug.

http://panoptic.com/ie7-js-300/

Hit that URL with IE8 with "Compatibility View" turned on, and you'll see the JS error.

When examining the IE9.js file, line 6 char 28214 point to the . in:

g.runtimeStyle[a]=

Any idea how to solve this problem? (yes, it needs to work in compatibility view)
