Background Image Size Is Not Working In Ie 8

my html code

css #content_main { width:1024px; height:150px; background:url('../images/Orange.jpg'); background

Solution 1:

IE8 does not support background-image options. You can use the caniuse.com website to see browser support matrices for various HTML5 features like background-size. Alternatively, if IE8 support is required, you'll need to use an <img> tag set behind your <div id="content_main">

Solution 3:

#content_main{

width:1024px;
height:150px;
background:url('../images/Orange.jpg');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-size:1024px150px;
-moz-background-size: 1024px150px;
-o-background-size: 1024px150px;
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader( src='images/Orange.jpg', sizingMethod='scale');
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader( src='images/Orange.jpg', sizingMethod='scale')";

}

Solution 4:

Stretch background image using CSS3 background-size: cover; and background-size: contain;, in IE8 too.

How to use it?

Upload backgroundsize.min.htc to your website, along with the .htaccess that will send the mime-type required by IE (Apache only — it's built in nginx, node and IIS).

Everywhere you use background-size in your CSS, add a reference to this file.

.selector { 
    background-size: cover;
    /* The url is relative to the document, not to the css file! *//* Prefer absolute urls to avoid confusion. */
    -ms-behavior: url(/backgroundsize.min.htc);
}

The elements styled this way should have a position: relative; or position: fixed; and a z-index. If not, they will be given a position: relative; and z-index: 0;.
