I believe normal transparent PNGs (ie where a single colour is either transparent or not) will work but that IE cannot handle PNGs with alpha transparency enabled. I too found this out the hard way... - Tony

Good source of IE PNG issues [libpng.org...] This thread also covers PNG pretty well. [webmasterworld.com...]

You can always use Opera to test for IE issues as well.

edit_g, No offence meant but the only guaranteed way to *really* test IE issues is to actually use IE to do the testing. That way I / client can be sure "IE Compatible" actually means IE compatible and not "Compatible with Opera pretending to be IE"... - Tony

None taken. I just meant as a quick fix to see if any obvious problems are evident. A site should be tested in every browser you can find before you roll it out. PS- you're talking to someone who checks over his sites with Lynx...

On one of the PNG mail lists a while back this was discussed. Apparantly IE on the Macintosh has excellent support for PNG transparancy, both single-color and alpha channel. For reasons only the Bill can explain, Microsoft did not port this level of support to IE on Windows. -- Rich
