div transparency, how do i make it work in IE 8

[mikeman]

Thanks to the guys in my very recent post here I was able to get the transparency effect working using

.custom #content_box {
background-color: #111;
background-color: hsla(0,0%,0%,.25);
width: 980px;
height: auto;
}

but this does not work in internet explorer, i have a separate style sheet for IE which i copied this code over to in an attempt to make it work and nothing, nor does it work by leaving it out..

works in firefox 3.6 and above. and chrome.

You should be aware that using IE filters can remove font anti-aliasing from the elements they’re applied to. Here’s a potential fix:
