It is so easy to correct broken png issues in IE 5.5 and up. If we take for granted that RC will only work in newer browsers anyways (I haven't even tried RC in IE5 or NS6 for instance), then what's the issue with including the little javascript function below to fix it once and for all?
[code] function correctPNG() { for(var i=0; i<document.images.length; i++) { var img = document.images[i] var imgName = img.src.toUpperCase() if (imgName.substring(imgName.length-3, imgName.length) == "PNG") { var imgID = (img.id) ? "id='" + img.id + "' " : "" var imgClass = (img.className) ? "class='" + img.className + "' " : "" var imgTitle = (img.title) ? "title='" + img.title + "' " : "title='" + img.alt + "' " var imgStyle = "display:inline-block;" + img.style.cssText if (img.align == "left") imgStyle = "float:left;" + imgStyle if (img.align == "right") imgStyle = "float:right;" + imgStyle if (img.parentElement.href) imgStyle = "cursor:hand;" + imgStyle var strNewHTML = "<span " + imgID + imgClass + imgTitle + " style="" + "width:" + img.width + "px; height:" + img.height + "px;" + imgStyle + ";" + "filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader" + "(src='" + img.src + "', sizingMethod='scale');"></span>" img.outerHTML = strNewHTML i = i-1 } } } window.attachEvent("onload", correctPNG); [/code]
This will, as far as I've been able to tell, correct transparency issues in IE every single time.

png transparency only fails in IE6 and below, not IE7 you can do larger than 256 colour gifs, but they are not lossless size is not really comparable because it depends on how many colours are being used - png uses selectable palette
No, it is still broken in IE7. At least it doesn't work a 100%. Which renders using PNGs useless for me.
