Hi,
My website works perfectly on Firefox, however the png background image that's utilized for my flyout menu's background doesn't look the same in IE. I don't have IE so I can only go by reports. Also I believe the rollover effect for the menu itself may not work in some versions of IE.

They say that a block appears and they can't see the text, the transparency is not there, and the shape of the box isn't the same as firefox. IE 8 may have resolved some on the png issues, but again I'm not sure since I can't see it. The Firefox version of my site is the way I want it to look.
Are there fixes for this? I'm on Godaddy. Am just learning html. But would love to resolve this issue since 50% of my hits are IE.
Thank you,
Jeannie

I'd wager the complainers are using IE6 or earlier, and beyond telling them to "PLEASE UPDATE YOUR DAMNED BROWSER", the filter trick might be your best bet
since your using this on a background image, read the pitfalls section in case any of that applies

Tue, August 11, 2009 - 1:07 AMIE 6 and 5.5 doesn't handle PNG-24s properly. However, by including a simple JavaScript on all your pages, you can ensure that they do work correctly. See this website:
