[Building Sakai] Internet Explorer 8 - Javascript broking

[Mark Norton]

The Sakai portal dynamically resizes tools present on a site page.  This 
is done using the very Javascript code you are referring to.  If you 
remove this code, the portal will display differently, depending on the 
size of the tool.  Since content can impact the size of the tool, 
screens would be erratic.

This is part of the Sakai portal.  Removing it is not advised.  That 
said, does Sakai work in IE8?
