Strange IE8 background image glitch

Strange IE8 background image glitch Just to keep this in mind. I was fixing bugs that my false assumption created, that RGBa background will work in IE. The fix was an old-school one: use a 1px transparent PNG. Nice, job done... as I imagined. IE8 rendered this nice glitch that made me scratch my head. What the hell. I kept on refreshing the page and noticed, that the background only transformed, when the contents of the box are modified at the onload event. After some minute I decided to try to resize the 1x1px image to 4x4px, and voila' the bug disappeared :)
