In order to guarantee that users of both Internet Explorer 7 and 8 experience the filter, you can include both syntaxes listed above. Due to a peculiarity in our parser, you need to include the updated syntax first before the older syntax in order for the filter to work properly in Compatibility View (This is a known bug and will be fixed upon final release of IE8). Here is a CSS stylesheet example:

#transparentDiv {
-ms-filter: “progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50)”;
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50);
opacity: .5;
}
