I'm using Recaptcha ASP.NET control and it works fine on all browsers except IE8. When I'm opening a page with recaptcha it simply is not displayed on page. IE says that there's an error on the page. Here are the details:

Webpage error details

User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E)
Timestamp: Wed, 2 Oct 2013 11:53:48 UTC


Message: Unknown runtime error
Line: 112
Char: 424
Code: 0
URI: https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/js/recaptcha.js

Maybe someone knows the remedy?

Simple workaround: Google's recaptcha js has an issue with nested tables in IE, make sure 

<recaptcha:RecaptchaControl
ID="recaptcha"
runat="server"
PublicKey="your_public_key"
PrivateKey="your_private_key"
/>

is NOT nested in a table.

Additional Info: I came across the same issue when adding a recaptcha to a contact form. In $.widget.innerHTML='<div id="recaptcha_area">'+d+"</div>" d contains tables and tr and in IE it is unhappy with writing Tables and or TR via innerHTML. More info here. It does not have the same issue as long as recaptcha code is not in a table. You can move the div around via css if placement is an issue
