    I cannot understand why one of my transparent background PNG's shows as transparent in firefox, but not in IE?
    Any ideas anyone?

    This is a known issue with IE, so solve it use the following code:

    <img src="some.png" style="filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='some.png', sizingMethod='scale');" alt="">
    Code (markup):

    I replaced both instances in the code with my PNG url, however it is still just showing a blank background, as opposed to a transparent background.
    Was I supposed to replace any more variables in there?
