Mike,
This line is invalid:
background-image: #333333 url("images/Footer_background_s1.jpg");
You're defining both the color *and* the url in the image property.
Either change it to:
background-image: url("images/Footer_background_s1.jpg");
background-color: #333333;
or:
background: #333333 url("images/Footer_background_s1.jpg");
This is invalid across all browsers, it's just that IE8 is the only one that
seems to actually care.

Subject: [WSG] Need a fresh eye - can anyone see what's wrong please?
I have a draft layout for a client that is fine in all respects except that
in IE8, the background image in the footer is missing.
Here's the page concerned:
http://afpwebworks.com/strikingdistance/index.cfm
And the footer div rule is as follows for IE (I have a IE-only style sheet)
:
#footer {
color: #d9d9d9;
background-image: #333333 url("images/Footer_background_s1.jpg");
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-position: top;
min-height: 96px;
}
Both the HTML and the CSS validate ok.
So does any one see what I have wrong for IE?
Cheers
