Interesting, the single line of code you sent works fine in IE, but not the website? With the code, IE asks if I want to allow blocked content, but doesn't give any warning for the website

hi dkim18,
I've noticed that this google calendar inside the IE that has a compatibility viewer turned off looks like this. Could you try to turn on the compatibility viewer setting on?
Go to IE->Menu->Tools->click on Compatibility Viewer
Cheers!

Interestingly, I actually get the opposite effect. On Windows 8 IE10, it works fine for me.
If I turn ON Compatibility View (e.g. you click the little torn page icon and it turns blue), then I see dkim18's behavior with the calendar not showing up.

Found it!
The reason was because you've commented the first line inside your page. If the page doesn't have DOCTYPE tag defined properly IE8/9 will default to quirks mode instead of the standard mode which causes Google's calendar to behave wrongly.
Try to uncomment that tag or replace it with this one:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

armchang,
yes, it works. however, the weather icons are missing on IE8(IE9 works ok.) unlike firefox.

Is this an IE version issue?

dkim18,
I'm confused. Can you show me what weather icons do you mean? Maybe you can attach an image here.

This is funny, I'm not seeing any weather icons in all the browsers. But I've seen inside you have another frame calling the google calendar which has a meta set to IE-7. If you could try and change that value to IE-9 and see what happens?
This is the code that needs to change to IE9:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatibl
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatibl

I am not following...
I searched text in entire site, but couldn't find <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatibl
