My OS is Windows XP SP3 with IE8. As you can see in the images posted above, the compatibility mode is turned off (the button near "refresh" is not enabled). I tried a browser emulator online (this is the report page: http://browsershots.org/http://spaceweb.co.cc/d71/m/events/home/ ) and the problem on IE8 is the same (on IE9 everything works properly, even if the report displays a blank page). It could be an IE8 problem (on the web I found a problem with icon fonts, IE8 and pseudo elements see more - http://andymcfee.com/2012/04/04/icon-fonts-pseudo-elements-and-ie8/ ).
