Answer 1

This can be this can be bug in IE i guess

If you are trying to create element in Head (if your code is between it was not able to create in tags) there is a patch for this but i could not find the link

Or try to create element in (put your script block in same section with the destination)

This can solve your issue

This issue is specific to IE-8
if you try with IE-9 it must not be the case
