Re: [WSG] problem with gradient and background in IE/Win
in the Fox, the transition between the gradient and the background-color is seamless while in IE/Win (5/5.5/6) the colors suddenly don't match anymore. please disregard the slightly mangled layout. any ideas? Use GIF if you need colors to match exactly.

JPEG is better suited to gradients anyway, PNG is GIF's replacement. -- -David R ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **
