CSS - Alpha Transparencies In Ie
Well, I have a couple png images that are using a transparent background. As most of you probably know, it looks great in every browser except IE for the PC. It looks like complete *** in that browser. Now I looked all over the net for a fix for this and found this in Microsoft's library of fixes for their products and found the AlphaImageLoader. Tried using their own code and the same code I found on a dozen other sites and it still isn't loading the transparency, so I'm just curious what I am doing wrong. Here is the code:
Image HTML Code: <div id = "welcome_image"> <img src = "/testing/inertia/images/home/welcome.png" alt = "Welcome" /> </div> Image CSS Code: #welcome_image { position: absolute; top: 10px; left: 10px; width: 168px; height: 216px; filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src="/testing/inertia/images/home/welcome.png", sizingMethod="scale"); } Similar TutorialsI am using pngfix.js and oddly it does work on IE for Mac, but doesn't seem to be working in IE regular. Wondering why it works for everyone else who uses it but not me. Any ideas? <edit>ETA:I figured out that the pngfix.js doesn't work on background images (also I didn't know pngs work on Mac IE so that explains why they were working there), so I'm searching for alternative solutions. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm hoping this might work. I do still need help with the other issue, though.</edit> And while I'm at it, why is it that my layout works in FF on both PC and Mac, and on Safari on a Mac, but implodes on IE? I'm guessing it's a float issue, but I'm not sure what. I'm reasonably (but not 100%) sure that my widths, margins, etc. are okay. http://www.describe.org/projects/describe/g/ hi | i'm setting alphas and this code: filter:alpha(opacity=50); is working fine on: IE on a PC IE on a MC Mozilla on a PC Mozilla on a MAC but it doesn't work on: FireFox on a MAC Safari on a MAC is the filter tag not supported by these 2 browsers? anyone have any suggestions? any help is greatly appreciated. thanks. fu-meng. Hello, im new to this forum ( A pleasure to meet everyone! ) I was browsing through the forum and could not find exactly what my problem is. I am trying to make a filter for my CSS code with the dropshadow effect on text. Eg: .content { color: White; text-align:justify; line-height:12px; font-family:tahoma,arial narrow,arial; font-size:9px; Filter: Alpha(Opacity=70) DropShadow(Color=#8F5A3A, OffX=1, OffY=1, Positive=1); } The problem is its just not working Its hard for me to get the colors correct to begin with because of the BG the text is on. But If I could get the Alpha(Opacity) to work with the DropShadow the text will be significantly more visible and would work fine. Any suggestions? or Solutions? Keep in mind im NOT very knowledgable in a lot of new things yet Help much appreciated- Thanks a lot! Hiya, been playing around with trans PNGs and appreciate Firefox more and more with each passing hour!! What's the best way to get PNGs with alpha channel transparency to work in IE6, so far I've tried the .htc script mehod which works OK, except, on my PC it asks if I want to execute the script each time I open or refresh the page. Don't know if it would do this on my web server and haven't tried it yet. Is there another equally straight forward way to deal with this? I thought about browser sniffing and then giving IE6 a nasty transparent GIF and everything else a PNG. What does everyone else think? John. is there any way to have the background of a table be at 50% opacity and the text be at 100% opacity? i've been playing with this code: style="filter:Alpha(Opacity=xx)" ...where xx is 50 or 100 and have placed it within the <table> tag and also within a <font> tag, but nothing seems to work. the font wants to be the same opacity as the table. is there any way around this? on a possible workaround, i've tried using semi-transparent PNG file as the background of the table, and that didn't work. i couldn't get the PNG file to do semi-transparent. it wanted to do a diffusion transparency, which looked like @ss. If I set a height for my LIs, then IE does not increment the list item. It shows a. a. a. a. instead of a. b. c. d. Actually it's the same for any list-style-type. It never increments the list-type, even when it's just the default style. I couldn't find any other mention of this anywhere. Does anybody know what causes this bug, or if there's a way to fix it? Here is some code to reproduce: Code: /* CSS */ #qform ol { list-style-type:lower-alpha; } #qform ol li { color:#333; height:25px; margin:10px 0; padding:0 0 0 20px; } #qform ol li input { margin:3px 5px 0 0; } #qform ol li label { margin:0; } <!-- HTML --> <form id="qform" action="index.php" method="post"> <fieldset> <ol> <li> <input type="radio" id="rada" name="answer" value="a" /><label for="rada">Once</label> </li> <li> <input type="radio" id="radb" name="answer" value="b" /><label for="radb">Twice</label> </li> <li> <input type="radio" id="radc" name="answer" value="c" /><label for="radc">Three Times</label> </li> <li> <input type="radio" id="radd" name="answer" value="d" /><label for="radd">A Lady</label> </li> </ol> <input type="submit" value="OK" /> </fieldset> </form> In IE6, that will display a list with a, a, a, a. Remove the height from #qform ol li and it works as it should. Thanks, I have an image link which I want to display at 50% opacity and when the user hovers over it I want it to be 100%. My code doesnt seem to be working tho?

The site uses the same rotating image script, in 2 locations. In the one location, it rotates the background image of a div. I've set the opacity to 0.7, alpha filter at 70. This is working properly - it is affecting the opacity of the background image as I want. The problem is that it is also affecting the opacity of static images that are contained within that same div. Any ideas on how I can keep the opacity of the rotating background image, without affecting the opacity of the static images that are on top of the background?

Regards, ChesterNerd I'm sure this can be fixed... But I'm not sure how! I was doing the final adjustments and cross-browser tweaking when I stumbled upon this issue... I'm using a CSS with the following background tag: Quote: background: #E8E9EA url(img/test.png) repeat-x 0 8px; My PNG is 32bits, and of course, this works OK in Firefox, etc.. But not in MSIE! ( tested under 6.0.2900.x ) - Instead of correctly blending the PNG with the table background, it displays full white rects as backgrounds. I tried a few ms-ie "holy" fix scripts, etc. None of them worked on this special case. Any ideas?. I wouldn't like to work-around this one... Thanks. Is it possible to overlay a colour onto a grayscale image to make it that colour with css? Such as using the alpha channel? Image in question would be a transparent background gif file. I have a problem involving the ie only filter alpha(). My problem is that any <div> that is nested inside another becomes clipped, see example: Code: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en"> <head> <title></title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> #inBusinessHolder { position: relative; } div.inBusinessBox { display: block; filter: alpha(opacity=80); position: absolute; width: 250px; height: 80px; border: 1px solid black; background: #cff; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="inBusinessHolder"> <div class="inBusinessBox" style="top:70px;left:100px;">text</div> <div class="inBusinessBox" style="top:140px;left:110px;">text</div> <div class="inBusinessBox" style="top:210px;left:120px;"> text <div class="inBusinessBox" style="top:10px;left:-10px;background:#cf6 z-index:1000">text</div> </div> </div> </body> </html> Anyone got any ideas? It's like the parent container is behaving like a clipping rectangle! Is there Opera compatible code for filter:alpha or -moz-opacity? |
