Ie 6 Display Problem unexpected background color

[paulmason411 0]

Hi guys,

I have just tested my site with IE6 and there seems to be some rendering problems:

All of that aqua color should be black as you can see in firefox.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

First off, change the "image" tags to "img" and that will eliminate 4 errors on the page.Then run the page through the w3c validator to see if the other warnings tell you anything.Post back here after you do those two things.*edit*###Newsflash###IE6 doesn't do png images. So, the problem is solved by changing the png's into jpg file types or, if you need transparency on them, into gif images.Alternately, there are javascript solutions, but it is simpler to alter the images into gif's.

You were right J it's simply a png problem with IE6. I have used some js to fix this.Thanks.

The javascript that I used for the pngs conflicted with the javascript for the scrollbar. So instead i've gone with the jpg option.Now I have a problem with the scrollbar, once again it looks great in firefox but not so great in IE 6.I think it might be a border or margin problem. Any suggestions?

Now I have a problem with the scrollbar, once again it looks great in firefox but not so great in IE 6.

What sort of Problem?
I don't seem to be able to duplicate it. It looks fine in FF and IE to me. Please describe the specific problem better.

Thanks.

In IE6 there is a gap between the top arrow and the scrollbar, and the bottom arrow is slightly off the bottom edge. Thanks.
