Hi Mark,

I got it working in IE8 using this code (thanks for your help!):

<script type="text/javascript">
        google.load('visualization', '1', {'packages':['motionchart']});
        google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
        function drawChart()
        {
          // To see the data that this visualization uses, browse to
          // 
http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AlDkiLyZtGBGdENBZDFxaFVIakpWWDZJLUI5ZTdwVmc&hl=en
          var query = new google.visualization.Query('http://
spreadsheets.google.com/tq?
range=A1:E31&headers=-1&key=0AlDkiLyZtGBGdENBZDFxaFVIakpWWDZJLUI5ZTdwVmc&gid=0');

          // Send the query with a callback function.
          query.send(handleQueryResponse);
        }

        function handleQueryResponse(response)
        {
          if (response.isError()) { alert('Error in query: ' +
response.getMessage() + ' ' + response.getDetailedMessage());
return; }
          var data = response.getDataTable();
          var chart = new google.visualization.MotionChart
(document.getElementById('chart_container'));

          var options = {};
          options['state'] = '{"dimensions":{"iconDimensions":
["dim0"]},"nonSelectedAlpha":0.4,"orderedByX":false,"xZoomedDataMax":
60,"iconType":"BUBBLE","showTrails":false,"uniColorForNonSelected":false,"yLambda":
1,"duration":{"timeUnit":"Y","multiplier":1},"yZoomedDataMax":
70,"time":"2000","sizeOption":"4","xLambda":1,"xZoomedDataMin":
5,"yZoomedDataMin":2,"stateVersion":3,"xAxisOption":"2","playDuration":
6.75,"iconKeySettings":[{"key":
{"dim0":"Africa"}}],"yAxisOption":"3","yZoomedIn":false,"xZoomedIn":false,"orderedByY":false,"colorOption":"_UNIQUE_COLOR"};';
          options['width'] = 662;
          options['height'] = 500;
          chart.draw(data, options);
        }
</script>
