Unhappy IE8 iframe width (compatibility issue)

Hello,

If you're using IE8 you might help me solve this weird and unexpected problem.

http://www.avis.com.lb/online-car-rental

As you can see the iframe isn't working properly, the width is cutting the iframe in the middle even though inside the adminpanel I have set the width to 600px but it's still not working.

However, in IE8 there is a new button called "compatibility" near the address bar and when I click it, the iframe unfolds and everything works fine.

What's this issue?

Code:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7">
This will fix it

Thank you so much, it works again!!!

I have been working for days on website writtenletters.com, looking through website notes to see what alternatives would work. The iframe incompatibility since IE8 made it impossible for visitors to see the content. This code works like a charm, will implement on all pages. Thank you so very much. Your solution in the heading area, made it work and display as it did under version IE7. Thank you!!!
