IE8 & IE9 gradients using -ms-filter cover the element

When applying:\[code\]-ms-filter:"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(GradientType=1,startColorstr=#FFFFFF,endColorstr=#000000)";\[/code\]to a DIV, the gradient behaves as if its an element covering the div and therefore mouse cursor no longer changes nor does mousemove events occur on the div. The only part of the div still responding is the border.I've googled and cried and put the cows to bed but all to no avail. It displays perfectly but I need to have the containing div respond to mouse events and I've no more hair to tear out.A happy day indeed it will be when we no longer care about the poor sods using IE8/9
