IE8 repeat-y fails

I'm setting a background for a div like that:

background:transparent url(images/con-left-bg.PNG) repeat-y;

however it's filling whole space instead repeating it vertically only...

Is there a way to 开发者_开发百科fix that so it'll work for IE8?

Try separating out your CSS into separate property:value; pairs, and put quotes around the url.

background-image: url('images/con-left-bg.PNG');
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-color: transparent;

But be aware that setting the background-color to transparent sometimes gets wonky in IE.

background-repeat: repeat-y;

you forgot that part :P , and another thing. end every statement with a semicolon(;)
