In IE, how do I remove a filter?

Question

I have a class

.tab{filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#f5ffff', endColorstr='#e8f2f8');}

and when one of the tabs is selected I want to remove the filter:

.tab.selectedtab{/*what do I put here to remove the filter?*/}

Answer 1

The answer is to set the enabled property of the filter like so:

filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(enabled = false);
