The behavior only works on png's in an tag and not png's as background images. This can be a huge pain!

you could always try using sleight

Personally I'd try persuading everyone to switch to a decent browser!

I wanted to revisit this thread as have just posted what's - hopefully - a fix for this problem at: http://www.webmaster-forums.net/showthread.php?t=32884&page=2

Hope this helps.

Yes its really only if you must use png for your design. I would stick to other methods if possible. Its probably not worth the hassle.

yeah i tried that once before but never got it to work so i refuse to believe it lol.

hardly ideal really anyway but i guess it's a decent hack if you NEED it!

Not quite correct. If you are going to be using the image in an tag then you can use this method to show png images in IE:

If instead you want to use your png as a background image then you will have to use the more complex ALA method:

Internet Explorer doesn't support PNG properly yet, and as far as i know there is no way around it.
