Softpress.com Problems

Is it just me or is the softpress site not loading right in IE6? Seems the banner at the top doesn’t load and it doesn’t have a round finish at the end of the container on the bottom after all the content. Also lots of weird shadows and things not being shown properly and looks like odd transparency issues (I would assume.)

Didn’t know if this was occurring for anyone else?

HI,
as you know, there are BIG issues with IE6 and PNGs. The background texture of the site is a PNG, which allows nice drap shadows over the gradient. The fix, which allows PNGs and full transparency, has the habit of killing off any links in the parent object. This is a major bug in the browser, and rendered the whole site’s links inoperable. So what happens is that IE6 will get a GIF for that particular background, and the site will work. It’s not as pretty as Fireforx, Safari etc., but it’s the compromise forced upon us.

IE7 will be be forced through the next Windows update by Microsoft, so the footprint of this browser will diminish dramatically.
