IE PNG FIX

Name: Anonymous 2007-07-30 10:29 ID:I9B7YMoc

Imagine a table based layout which contains 3 tr & 9 td where only one td is actual content but 8 other td are PNG images which represents borders. Well, the thing is some of these images are tiled or repeat-x and repeat-y and I couldn't find any working IE PNG FIX JavaScript or any other fix for that matter to fix this problem? See what I did there?

Any ideas on how to accomplish it?

Don't use IE

Name: Anonymous 2007-07-30 10:48 ID:Heaven

don't use IE. or if you must use IE, upgrade to IE7.
if you're using a version of windows older than xp, get an operating system that was released this century.

Use CSS instead of table-based layouts.  Use http://dean.edwards.name/IE7/ for compatibility with broken IE.

People, do you realize that most of the world still use IE5/6?

>>2
I don't but others does.

>>3
I have an descent system and I do use Firefox.

The problem is not in tables but in IE behavior of PNG transparency. Also, I don't understand what you wanted to say when you pointed to that link...

Fuck others. Give them a reason to switch.

Avoid IE

>>4
Lose. DIVs+CSS are just an ugly hack and it makes everything harder to do and debug, not to mention the higher reliance on what's known to work poorly on stupid browsers.

Then I might as well switch my current occupation.

PNG format background image + Internet Explorer, do you read it?

OK, no need for a flame or any other bullshit though question is still valid and GIF images aren't an answer.

Works for me on old IE6

You could also try the old trick:

<img src="spacer.gif" width="247" height="216" style="filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='image.png', sizingMethod='scale');" alt="">

Where spacer.gif is an empty 1x1 pixel transparent gif, and image.png is your image.

You can do that with an .htc linked at the start of the document instead of having all that ugly fucking shit.

None of the above methods work for the repeated, transparent PNG, I have tried them all and even more.

Turning slowly into an emo.

EITHER FUCKING STOP USING TRANSPARENT PNGS OR STOP SUPPORT IE
NOW GTFO YOU DUMBFUCK

Name: Anonymous 2007-07-31 11:34 ID:Heaven

IE 7 and IE for mac both support transparent png.
anyone using a version of IE that doesn't is probably used to web sites looking like shit.

Name: Anonymous 2007-07-31 17:00 ID:PGL0sxif

IE6 doesn't support repeated transparent png.
If you have to have transparent png so bad, tile it yourself manually until it's 2000x2000 pixels. That is the EXPERT IE6 WEB DESIGNER way.

using semi-transparent png's makes your website render and scroll slowly and no one really likes that

not if you do it right.
i have a 1600x200 semitransparent png banner on my site that resizes as you resize the window and that doesn't even slow resizing the window down enough that anyone would be able to notice it on anything faster than an 8086.

All you fuckers don't know a shit, really. Found a workaround myself.

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="cornersie.css" />
<![endif]-->

Where:

#oneOfTheImage {
    width: 10px;
    height: 10px;
    background-image: url(img/cornersie/oneOfTheImage.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

Where *.png is PNG-8 not PNG-24, but for all other browsers I still use PNG-24

You must really know your shit.
