IE8 Standards Mode + VML seems to work just fine:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml">
<head>
<style type="text/css">
v\:rect{
behavior:url(#default#VML);
display:inline-block;
width:100px;
height:100px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<v:rect fillcolor="green" />
</body>
</html>

Not sure if you've seen flot?
Very good javascript graphing library, uses canvas for non IE and uses
excanvas for IE. Haven't had any problems with it in IE

All that can be done with a canvas, provided that you invert the 6 for
IE.

An occasional poster here has commended something else, which I read
about in Wikipedia; if I could recall what it's called, I'd say. Aha! :
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML_canvas> links to
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Vector_Graphics>. SVG. IE9.

If, however, you can settle for a histogram style - and histograms can
have thin bars - or for just dots plus horizontal and vertical lines,
then study <URL:http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/js-misc1.htm> for ideas

You're welcome.
I for one would use the <canvas> thingy: http://jorgechamorro.com/cljs/102/
So sorry that Microsoft doesn't want us to use it :-)
