I’m fixing my template for Internet Explorer 8, and now I have a question.

I’m fixing my template for Internet Explorer 8, and now I have a question. Why doesn’t a gradient appear on an element with CSS: display: table;?

Is there any solution for this?

filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#5d6372', endColorstr='#8d929e',GradientType=0 );

    startcolorstr and endcolorstr need 8 hex digits; you have only 6.

    Edit: no wait, that can’t be it. Your original style does work with IE8 like that.

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
 <head>
  <title>IE8 Gradient test</title>
 </head>
 <body>
  <div style="display:table; width:100%; filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#5d6372', endColorstr='#8d929e', GradientType=0 );">
   <div style="display:table-row"><div style="display:table-cell">test</div></div>
  </div>
 </body>
</html>

    So can you show what you tried?
