Re: [css-d] tiling png ie6

2007-09-10 Thread WEZ!
As far as I'm aware there are no limitation to tiling (repeating) a 
png image in any browser.

What you are most likely finding is if you want a Transluscent png 
you can't tile them in IE(win) less than 7.0.

The reason behind this is that IE(win) can't render the transparency 
in a Png file at all. The only work around is to use an IE filter 
which has the limitation of inability to be tiled. This may be what 
you are reading on various websites.

Subject: [css-d] tiling png ie6

Hi All,

so everywhere i read it tells me that you cannot having tiling background
.png images in IE6. i messed around with this for a while and i ended up
getting it to work and was wondering if this is really possible or if it's
just a fluke. here is a link to the page

http://jpmwebdev.com/beta/png_test/png_test.html

it's working on my machine for IE6 and wanted to know if it would work on
other people's machines. please check it out if you have a minute. maybe
it's common knowledge that this tiling .png backgrounds are possible and i
just don't know it? any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
Jeff


The background image in the page you referenced is a GIF, not a PNG. What's
the question again?

>>everywhere i read it tells me that you cannot having tiling background

Really? Everywhere? Can you cite an example?

Walt

[css-d] tiling png ie6 followup

I just realized that what is causing the appearance of tiling is the scale
property of the ie filter. so, sorry for the pointless question before

There's a quick screenshot for you. The background looks fine, but 
whatever you've got going on with the "thank you" appears to be broken. 
IE6 is on top, FF2.* is on bottom
