Re: [css-d] how the page comes up in IE
258KB is pretty large for a BG image. Saving as a medium jpg in PS, brings it down to 15KB with acceptable quality. http://i.imgur.com/WPVSm.jpg Kevin On Thu, Mar 31, 2011 at 11:52 AM, Sandy sfeld...@sympatico.ca wrote: hey all, I have a problem in ie that I hope you can help with http://burlmannconstruction.com/test/ http://burlmannconstruction.com/test/css/burlmann.css the client is bothered by how the site comes up.

Re: [css-d] how the page comes up in IE
I have a problem in ie... Which version of IE? Although, I am fairly certain you will say IE 6 because you mentioned seeing a gray square. For this I recommend: http://www.dillerdesign.com/experiment/DD_belatedPNG/ Thank you, Marc Hall HallMarc Websites __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

http://burlmannconstruction.com/test/ http://burlmannconstruction.com/test/css/burlmann.css Hmm, try Google up flash of unstyled content? That's what it sounds like to me. well, it's not really unstyled. It's just missing that 20px margin. http://bluerobot.com/web/css/fouc.asp/ and http://www.techrepublic.com/article/prevent-the-flash-of-unstyled-content/5140996 say it's caused by the @import rule - but I use a link to the style sheet, and I also have a second link link href=css/small_device.css media=only screen and (max-width:600px), only screen and (max-device-width: 600px) rel=stylesheet type=text/css / so, I've done what I can for fouc. excellent guess, but I think it may be something else. thanks for taking the time to think about this, Sandy __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Marc, at the risk of sounding a bit thick, this looks like a link to a script that fixes ie6's trouble with transparency, right? I don't have any transparent pngs here. Or is there something on that link that I am not seeing? thanks!
