Hi,
I've been having some trouble using transparent PNGs in IE. I know the browser doesn't support them, but there is a workaround using some crazy mircosoft filter thing (see
this site and
microsoft's explanation). This works pretty fine if you just need to display a single image, but I want a transparent PNG as a repeated background image in a <div>.
To get this to work in IE, I'm trying to use javascript to insert enough <span> tags (each containing one instance of the image) to fill the <div> tag I have (it's of fixed width). The trouble is, this code only works if I insert <div>'s, not <span>'s. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening?
Thanks for any help,
Graham.
