This a fix for a JavaScript-based PNG fix for Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6 on Windows. The fix allows IE to properly render PNG alpha transparency.
Why only versions 5.5 & 6? Because Windows IE versions prior to 5.5 do not support the filter which fixes the PNG problem, and version 7 does not have any issues on displaying png images.
just insert in the page these lines of Javascript code or insert somewhere in the head section of html
Correctly handle PNG transparency in Win IE 5.5 & 6.
Use in <HEAD> with DEFER keyword wrapped in conditional comments:
<!–[if lt IE 7]>
<script defer type=”text/javascript” src=”pngfix.js”></script>
<![endif]–>
var arVersion = navigator.appVersion.split(“MSIE”)
var version = parseFloat(arVersion[1])
if ((version >= 5.5) && (document.body.filters))
{
for(var i=0; i<document.images.length; i++)
{
var img = document.images[i]
var imgName = img.src.toUpperCase()
if (imgName.substring(imgName.length-3, imgName.length) == “PNG”)
{
var imgID = (img.id) ? “id='” + img.id + “‘ ” : “”
var imgClass = (img.className) ? “class='” + img.className + “‘ ” : “”
var imgTitle = (img.title) ? “title='” + img.title + “‘ ” : “title='” + img.alt + “‘ ”
var imgStyle = “display:inline-block;” + img.style.cssText
if (img.align == “left”) imgStyle = “float:left;” + imgStyle
if (img.align == “right”) imgStyle = “float:right;” + imgStyle
if (img.parentElement.href) imgStyle = “cursor:hand;” + imgStyle
var strNewHTML = “<span ” + imgID + imgClass + imgTitle
+ ” style=\”” + “width:” + img.width + “px; height:” + img.height + “px;” + imgStyle + “;”
+ “filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader”
+ “(src=\'” + img.src + “\’, sizingMethod=’scale’);\”></span>”
img.outerHTML = strNewHTML
i = i-1
}
