Textpattern's hak_tinymce plugin does not work in IE

I've set up Textpattern's hak_tinymce plugin on a website I run, and it works great in Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera. However, in IE the content area is gray (e.g. it just isn't there), and the Javascript fails with this error: Webpage error details User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; ...

Seeking opinions on the best CMS platform for designers and front end developers

I have so far been a dedicated Wordpress user, but have been researching other CMS solutions of late, specifically, looking for something that could potentially allow me to EASILY convert an XHTML site into a CMS site for most projects.
