Content not displayed???
For some reason, my site is not displaying when I use IE8 but it shows under Firefox. Anyone know what I have done wrong?

It might be one of the over 30 validation errors. (Then again, it may not.)
The first script looks very suspicious. You can't have the character sequence '</' anywhere within a <script> element, since it terminates it. You need to escape it as '<\/' – or better yet, use an external script.Birnam wood is come to Dunsinane

But the "</" is from Google Analytics. They give you that code to use.

Google aren't exactly know for their commitment to web standards. Just look at the markup they use for their own pages!
I'm not saying that the bad script code is to blame, but it might very well confuse some browsers. Besides, assuring valid markup is usually a good idea before doing any other form of trouble-shooting.Birnam wood is come to Dunsinane

Sure. The thing is it was working fine a couple of weeks ago and now its not. I wonder if its something to do with the popup maybe. It all works splendidly in Firefox.

It seems to work in Opera as well.

IE8 shows an exclamation mark on the bottom left of its window, suggesting an error. Is there any way it can report the specific error?

That means it is some javascript error. Double click it and ask for more details. One of the buttons there.

Perhaps you can find some help on Microsoft's page about that error?
This problem occurs because a child container HTML element contains script that tries to modify the parent container element of the child container. The script tries to modify the parent container element by using either the innerHTML method or the appendChild method.Birnam wood is come to Dunsinane

Decided to remove the popup. There must be more compliant popup scripts out there.

Have you tried?
Code JavaScript:<script type="text/javascript"> <!-- script here --> </script>
