ie6 image problem

Driving me insane....

[StanTheMan]

I am getting people contact me a saying that images are not loading on my page. Though investigating I have found that they are using IE6 and that there is a bug built in.

I have tried search around there is a hotfix on Microsoft site but I could do with it being fixed at my end rather than wait for people to upload a fix.

Does anyone know anything about this, and could shed some light on the situation?

Thanks

Where are your images located and what program are you using for your site build?

Perhaps the images are on your local computer and were not published to the host.

For instance, I use absolute urls (using the tag "http://" for my images. Maybe your images are relative urls and something is not right.

Do your images show up in other browsers (Opera, Netscape, etc.)?

They are all absolute and work in every other browser I have tested. Thus driving me insane....

Another thing when you click on show image - it actually shows on the screen.

Send me a sticky mail with the site and I'll do a quick test if you like. I'm running IE6, Opera, Netscape7.

If the images are in a floated div, you may be running into what's called the "peek-a-boo bug". One work-around for that is to assign an explicit line-height rule for the floated div.
