Могут ли Google Gauges правильно работать в IE?

Кто-нибудь понимает последнее сообщение о том, как он заставил это работать:

«Я использовал https вместо http внутри тег скрипта. Это сработало "

Which tag is he referring to? Is that where you load the javascript from google? (I tried an https there, no luck.) Other methods don't seem to work...

I have the Google gauges working in Firefox:
http://code.google.com/apis/visualization/documentation/gallery/gauge.html

But will not work in IE 8.

I also noticed that the "Google Playground" in IE comes up with a pop-up to install Chrome:
http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/?type=visualization#gauge

I saw this post but not a real solution:
http://code.google.com/p/google-visualization-api-issues/issues/detail?id=5

First, what exactly is the issue?

I'm looking for a deeper understanding of why it doesn't work.

Next, any ideas on what to do?

Thanks!

Bounty started for 100 pts. Looking for the "best" (as voted by other users) answer to get the guages working in IE, by the end of 7 days
