    Hi all,

    I'm in the process of creating a blog with png's. Well, I had no idea of the problems that IE has caused developers for ages. Here is my test blog:

    http://mikestv.blogspot.com/ ps. the background is big, may take a few extra seconds to load.

    In Firefox, my paper-like post bodys look good against the background. In good 'ol IE, I get a white square around them. I've read of some work arounds, but I'm not familiar enough with html to just start fixing this. Could someone as an example take one of my images and apply some sort of code to it so I could see if alpha transparency is possible in IE, and if so, how can I acheive it?

    Thanks in advance

    mike

    You might want to look at this page. Read it over, it tells you where to get a javascript that you should include and what you need to do to get it working. Doesn't look like much. Include the JS file and make sure your PNG IMGs have a height and width set.
