Internet Explorer 8 is a bit peculiar when it comes to support CSS opacity. It still doesn’t support the ‘opacity’ property like any other browser, but also breaks support for ‘filter: alpha(opacity=XX)’, which worked fine in IE6 and IE7. To work around this, insert above meta element in the HEAD section of the HTML.
