Hello, I've been trying to get a table to have a transparent background now for about 3 days. I've tired using PGN's but cannot get them to work in IE. I've searched and searched for fixes but can't seem to get it fixed. Then when I finally found something that does work my table color is transparent but so is the text. I cannot win! Here is my page.... http://rohrermarketing.com/temp2.html As you can see everything looks fine until you get to the words "try to take a two". They blend in with the red. I'm looking for a fix. Feel free to view the source code of that page. Chris.
A couple of questions... First, why are you still using ie 6? Is it only for testing purposes or does your site get a lot of traffic with ie 6 users? Second. What is the end result of your picture with text on it? Will the image be dynamically loaded like some type of slideshow?
Have you changed the content of the page. I just see a image of a baseball pitcher. Can't find the words "try to take a two"
I cant find any text either, but here are two solutions for your problem: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/png-hack-for-ie-6/ http://www.twinhelix.com/css/iepngfix/ If I were you, I would make the site tableless before I started worrying about the site looking good in ie6. even if it wont look as good without the pngfix, it will still be functional.
you can make PNG transparencies for IE6 etc... See: http://webprocafe.com/magazine/2009/05/transparent-images-without-the-hacks Really quite clever!
Tables are a bad move for designing a site in general. And IE6 is a even more... nasty thing... IE in general sucks. M$ browsers will never be standards compliant in any way. Go for CSS design ;-) Regards, Michael
I used to do when the page design, each code should be in a different browser to test, if so produced further tests will be sealing of the really, a bunch of code to let you know what to do, there is the develop the habit of making notes.
