Round corners, images in the background, gradients in the background, and compatibility with Internet Explorer versions 8 and

I've encountered an issue where my div with border radius, background gradient, and background image are working fine in FireFox but not displaying correctly in IE8 or IE10. In IE8, the gradient and background image work properly, but as soon as I apply the border radius, the border disappears.

.add-to-carttest {
border: 1px solid #004f9e;
padding: 5px 5px 5px 50px;
width:100px;
height: 40px;
font-weight:bold;
background: url(https://www.storesmart.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/add-to-cart-plus.png) no-repeat, -webkit-gradient(linear, 0 0, 0 bottom, from(#e1f0ff), to(#73b9ff));

Unfortunately, border-radius is not supported in IE8

Oops! I just realized your behavior entry...you may want to verify your path.

Here's what I have come up with:

CSS:

.common
{
    width: 100px;
    height: 40px;
    border: 1px solid #004f9e;
    padding: 5px 5px 5px 50px;
    margin: 0px;
    font-weight: bold;
    -webkit-border-radius: 4px;
    -moz-border-radius: 4px;
    border-radius: 4px;
    !behavior: url(../../Graphics/PIE/PIE.htc);
    position: relative;
    border-collapse:collapse;
}

.add-to-carttest
{
    background-image: url('https://www.storesmart.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/add-to-cart-plus.png');
    background-position:20px 20px;
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
    background-attachment:fixed;
    top:-6px;
    left:-51px;
}

.gradient
{
    background: -moz-linear-gradient(#e1f0ff, #73b9ff); 
    background: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0 0, 0 bottom, from(#e1f0ff), to(#73b9ff));
    background: -webkit-linear-gradient(#e1f0ff, #73b9ff);
    background: -ms-linear-gradient(#e1f0ff, #73b9ff);
    background: -o-linear-gradient(#e1f0ff, #73b9ff);
    background: linear-gradient( #e1f0ff, #73b9ff);
    filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#e1f0ff', endColorstr='#73b9ff',GradientType=0 );
    -ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#e1f0ff', endColorstr='#73b9ff',GradientType=0 )";
}

HTML:

<div class="common gradient">
    <div class="common add-to-carttest"></div>
</div>

The gradient filter in IE8 appears to override and hide or reposition the background image because it treats the gradient as an image. Therefore, I separated the CSS and nested the divs. Then I adjusted the inner div to overlay the outer one. This solution seems to work, although not very elegant, but compatible.

Additionally, positioning using "bottom-left" syntax only seems to function in newer browsers, so I opted to position the background image by pixel position instead.

I hope this information proves helpful
