Google Maps APIs have problems with IE8.

The only walkaround for now is to put the following meta tag in your page:
<meta http-equiv=X-UA-Compatible content=IE=EmulateIE7 />

Check this:
http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Maps-API/browse_thread/thread/9946215e23a3
bdf2?
pli=1

And also check the HTML source code of:
http://maps.google.com/

And you will find this tag in the HTML source as well.
