Interesting. This is not a problem in IE 7 Beta. Very odd indeed.

Yes, MS fixed this by supporting png alpha channel in IE7. But 98% use IE6 and FF 1.5.x so this png grafik should be replaced by gif with transparent border or a grafik without transparent border and margin: 0px;padding: 5px;border: none;

You can support alpha layer transparencies in earlier versions of IE with a simple javascript; example:

I'm just stating facts, not being critical of older browsers. laugh

Most likey we will fix this by going to .gif files. eek

Many people disable javascripting. I use analytics on my boards and there I can see that 25% run without javascript. Gif or a css workaround would be the best solution.
