image not showing in IE8

This won't be another IE8 rant or will it? :evil:

Still fast tracking myself in CSS as all the other sites have done have been in the "old" table versions.

I can't seem to get a background image showing up for page-container2 in 4.3X.
Shows perfectly as usual in the Fox.

Code:

#page-container2 {

  background: url(images/custom/tablebg.jpg) no-repeat;

}

The very next line is content-container and the image appears fine in both browsers

Code:

#content-container {

    background: url(images/custom/mwwin.jpg) no-repeat;

  padding-bottom: 100px;

  margin-top: 130px;

}

Can anyone explain how this is caused? Surely not padding nd margin tags making the difference in IE?

thanks

Re: image not showing in IE8

Ok getting somewhere albeit painfully slow.

I moved the background image from page-container to center and is now showing in both browsers except it appears IE8 is ignoring the margin-top reference below

Code:

#center {

    background: url(images/custom/tablebg.jpg) no-repeat;

    float: left;

    position: relative;

    width: 50%;

    left: 50%;

    margin-top: 409px;

Anyone have a clue how to get IE to move the image down 409px?

EDIT......Cleared cache and all sweet.

Thanks
