PNG Fix help

[picos]

I put this in the very top of the boardindex file

<?php
// Version: 1.1; BoardIndex

function template_main()
{
   global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl, $modSettings;
   echo '
   <script defer type="text/javascript" src="', $settings['theme_url'], '/pngfix.js"></script>';

Still hasn't worked LOL.  The main body are is still suffering.

Sorry, maybe it's time for you to use jpg's instead of png's.

Maybe but i don't under stand why smf can't even call a different css file then so i can use jpegs for ie6 only.  Strange!

The png fix will not work for images loaded via a style.css or similar.

[picos]

This isn't strictly true as I have one of my sites using 2 png fixes as one works for the header and the other one works for css....  I just can't the same results with smf. 

Sleepy could you tell me how to call a seperate css for IE6 then as i'll use JPEG for IE6 instead.  Thank for all the idas so far folks!

[picos]

Anyone able to tell me how to call a specific css file for IE6 only?  If I get it working with your help, I'll make it worth your while with a donation or something.  Thanks.

As I use IE7 as my primary browser I can confirm that I've never had an issue with transparency in PNGs.

[picos]

Yeha I know this!  LOL  I wish I didn't have to cater for IE6 as everyone else but unfortunately not everyone has the knowledge that us higher beings own and know that ie6 is crap...  ok that's maybe a little controversial but hey, I need to get my png's working in ie6 for a project and I'm hoping that calling on a simple css for ie6 will solve my problems as I'll just make the files in the css JPEGS!  LOL.


Does this make proper and good sense?

SMF has built in browser checks for most common browsers.
So if you want something to only work with ie6 you just do a simple php check

Code Select Expand


if ($context ['browser']['is_ie6'])
      echo '
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="', $settings['theme_url'], '/style_ie.css" />';
else
      echo '
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="', $settings['theme_url'], '/style.css" />';

I don't know of this style.css png fix. Got a link? I only know of the method I posted which basically wraps some code with javascript around the images.
