How do I make background-size work in IE?
9 answers
I\'ve tried to add background size to IE but it\'s not working at all:
HTML
<h2 id=\"news\">Notícias <img src=\"white-marker.png\" alt=\"\" /></h2>
CSS:
div#content h2#news {
background: url(\'../images/news-background.jpg\') no-repeat;
background-size: 100%;
border-radius: 20px;
color: #fff;
margin: 20px 0 0 20px;
padding: 8px 20px;
width: 90%;
-moz-background-size: 100%;
-moz-border-radius: 20px;
-webkit-background-size: 100%;
-webkit-border-radius: 20px;
}
What\'s wrong with the filter?
As posted by \'Dan\' in a similar thread, there is a possible fix if you\'re not using a sprite:
How do I make background-size work in IE?
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(
src=\'images/logo.gif\',
sizingMethod=\'scale\');
-ms-filter: \"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(
src=\'images/logo.gif\',
sizingMethod=\'scale\')\";
However, this scales the entire image to fit in the allocated area. So
if your using a sprite, this may cause issues.
Caution
The filter has a flaw, any links inside the allocated area are no longer clickable.
I created jquery.backgroundSize.js: a 1.5K jquery plugin that can be used as a IE8 fallback for \"cover\" and \"contain\" values. Have a look at the demo.
Solving your problem could be as simple as:
$(\"h2#news\").css({backgroundSize: \"cover\"});
Also i have found another useful link. It is a background hack used like this
.selector { background-size: cover; -ms-behavior: url(/backgroundsize.min.htc); }

I use the filter solution above, for ie8.
However..
In order to solve the freezing links problem , do also the following:
background: no-repeat center center fixed\\0/; /* IE8 HACK */
This has solved the frozen links problem for me.
As pointed by @RSK IE8 doesn\'t support background-size.
To figure out a way to deal with this, I used some IE specific hacks as showed here:
//IE8.0 Hack!
@media \\0screen {
.brand {
background-image: url(\"./images/logo1.png\");
margin-top: 8px;
}
.navbar .brand {
margin-left: -2px;
padding-bottom: 2px;
}
}
//IE7.0 Hack!
*+html .brand {
background-image: url(\"./images/logo1.png\");
margin-top: 8px;
}
*+html .navbar .brand {
margin-left: -2px;
padding-bottom: 2px;
}
Using this I was able to change my logo image to a ugly resided picture. But the final result is fine. I suggest u try something like this.
