web tribulations

blah. IE sucks. Microsoft sucks. However, most people using the site that I'm remaking use IE 6 on Windows XP.

IE 6 does not support transparency in pngs.

Actually, converting the images to gif's wasn't that big of a deal. Just annoying. The real fun part will be to see if that solves the rendering problem, where it for some reason things that it should disappear everything below the height of the nav bar.

*grumbles* I hate Microsoft. The site works just fine in every browser on the mac I could find. Even IE on the mac supports transparent pngs. And no, I didn't download it. No one uses it, so there's no point in testing. I just did a search when the page was royally screwed up in my first windows test run.

anyway, I have to see if I can go borrow the other windows computer and see if that fixed things.. now that I'm done sounding off.

It's true. No transparancy in pngs. That's why I use gifs.

yeah, it's not like it took more than 10 min to convert all the images from png to gif, but it was annoying that I had to. png has variable transparency - that works in browsers on Macs and makes a slightly different effect.

But it's not the end of the world. It was just annoying.
