Am I correct that this selector does NOT work in IE 7 ? IE9 in
compatibility mode isn't displaying the icon.
No, attribute selectors are supported in IE7 (CSS 2.1) -

Maybe there is another syntax issue?
Yes, it is. The page
http://www.sbctc.edu/testEmailNEW.html
now contains the declaration
background:url('/imgs/layout/icon_emailTEST.jpg')center right no-repeat;
which is OK except that there should be a space after ")". At least when
testing on IE 10, the background image is not shown when the Document
Mode is set to IE 7 or IE 8, but it is if the space is added:
background:url('/imgs/layout/icon_emailTEST.jpg') center right no-repeat;
I'm not that good at CSS low-level syntax, which has varied over time.
The W3C CSS Validator does not flag the declaration as erroneous when
the space is not there, but the good/dusty old, mostly CSS 1 level
checker http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/csscheck/ says:
"Error: Multiple values should be separated by whitespace."
In any case, it is safer (and it makes the CSS code more readable) to
separate the values with spaces.
