Hi chaps, I’ve done a search and thought that in FW5 there was a fix for the transparency problem in IE - I have a bg image here:
http://www.crowninnhighfield.co.uk/
but it’s a .psd - would I be better of, on this occasion making it a .png ?
(I know I can do this and try it but wanted to know the best way to go)
BTW on this site there is an FLV (on the quiz night page) would you mind checking it out please.
Regards Roger

Hi Roger there is a fix its the png /htc fix but it doesnt work on IE 6 backgrounds in fact not much does… there is a sort of fix that can be used in certain circumstances, but its a real trial and error thing to get it to work
background-image: none;
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='/images/transparent.png', sizingMethod='image/scale/crop');
this would normally used within a IE6 style sheet so as I said a bit of trial work would need to be done to see if it works for your circumstance.

If it is a background image then why does transparency matter?

If you you have a Div with some text in it and you apply a semi transparent image to background of this div then you place that over for example a coloured square you will see the coloured square through the background image. but unfortunately IE 6 wont support this as it doesn’t really recognise the transparency in png’s

Thanks Max, I’ll check that out and I would kind of agree with Dave, ie why does it matter but obviously it does - and where is it getting the background colour from to make it different to my ‘chosen’ background colour ? I’ll keep digging, thanks both, as ever, for your time. Roger
