how to allow IE browsers to see linear gradients

i have been having a little bit of difficulty with getting IE browsers to show linear gradients.

this is the code that i have used so far:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
#rightsidegradientbar 

{

    width:50px;

background-image: -webkit-gradient(

    linear,

    right bottom,

    left bottom,

    color-stop(0.1, #FFFFFF),

    color-stop(0.78, #00CCCC),

    color-stop(1, #00CCCC)

);

background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(

    right center,

    #FFFFFF 10%,

    #00CCCC 78%,

    #00CCCC 100%

);

filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#FFFFFF', endColorstr='#00CCCC');}

this is the furthest i have got i would appriciate any help that you could possibly give me.

Browsers older IE9 would not probably show linear gradients. You would need to use background image for that.

If you want a working gradient that works in IE9 you should use this code, it works for me (it also works in other browsers like Mozilla and chrome).

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
background:-webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#f6f6f6), to(#e2e2e2));
 
background:-moz-linear-gradient(top,  #f6f6f6,  #e2e2e2);

          filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#f6f6f6', endColorstr='#e2e2e2');

NOTE: I didn't use colors you did, so remember to change them.

If you want gradient in IE 8 and lower you should create another css style sheet for them and use background image and then in the <head> tags of your page use this:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<!--[if IE 7 ]> Define path to stylesheet here <![endif]--> 

<!--[if IE 8 ]> Define path to stylesheet here <![endif]-->
