Hey,

Looks like I have found a an odd bug in all the major Win32 browsers with transparent images over the top of each other.

The site is :

<sorry, no personal links>

The background of the page is a fixed image. Then the logo is GIF image with transparency. Which works, now and then.

Try going to the website above and resize your window. It works and then it doesn't work. IE / Mozilla and even Opera.

Anyone encountered this before? Or has a work around.

does it work after resizing and refreshing the page?

sometimes this appears if the device driver for the graphiccard is buggy. this might be only a problem on your system. pm the link please.

too much information

How about placing a transparent <div> above the image instead? In fact, you could even put one on top of the page and have it contain your navagational links.

You would still see the images, but you just couldn't interact with them directly.

A related bug in Mozilla:

A transparent image that is used as a link has a horrible grey bar applied where the words would have been had it been a text link when you mouseover the image.

I fixed it by putting a class="transparent" on the <a href=...> tag, and making the CSS for the a.hover for that class of mouseover be transparent too.

Hey,

Thanks I will try messing around with image itself. Maybe a background image or something.

However :
Happens in IE 6.0 and Mozilla and Opera. I have also heard reports of it happening on other peoples machines. However all of these Machines are Windows 2000.

Did anyone look at the page? What was their experience?
