After reading this article:

http://koivi.com/ie-png-transparency/

I tried to implement his solution, but am having no luck. I'm not sure where you would place the tags he outlines.

I hate using PNG-8 because the result is just not clean enough. The transparent PNG-24 I use look great in any browser except IE, which has the alpha bug.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how/where to implement this guy's suggestions, or have any suggestions/recommendations on how to implement PNG-24 correctly?

Many thanks,
JDexter

Hi

I've found the IE7 javascript library to be fantastic for fixing the problem with transparent PNGs and IE.

It's confusingly names as it has nothing to do with internet explorer 7, it just fixes internet explorer 5.5 and 6 standards compliance issues.

Well worth a look:

I will try that.

The reason I'd like to figure out how to use this guy's suggestion is because it doesn't rely on something that can be disabled by the user.

Definitely worth a shot... Looks good so far. Be sure to check the warnings, too!

I had given up on this idea. I'll try Dean Edward's scripts and give it a try. Thanks for the update!
