Question

How can I make IE8 show a gradient background + image. This is possible in other browsers, but in IE it doesn’t work.

In other browsers:

/* Opera */ 
background-image: url(gxt/images/my/eye.png) , -o-linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF 0%, #EFCA11 100%);
/* Webkit (Safari/Chrome 10) */ 
background-image:url(gxt/images/my/eye.png) , -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0, #FFFFFF), color-stop(1, #EFCA11));

Answer 1

I found the answer to my question:

filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr="#FFFFFF", endColorstr="#EFCA11",GradientType=0 ), progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src="gxt/images/my/eye.png");
