png never works?

  • png never works?

    Posted 17 years 5 months ago
    • Is the iepngfix supposed to work out of the box? When I install firenze or versatility_iii (joomla 1.0) all png's are gray boxes in IE 6.

      I put an alert in css/iepngfix.htc and it is firing.

      I've tried a number of fixes suggested here and on the web but I'm stuck. Makes me wonder if some other css/javascript is interfering. I'm lost.

    • p.s. ALL of the pngs are gray, not just the logo.

    • Not sure, try this:

      www.joomlaworks.gr/

      Download the ultimate png fix and install as a mambot and then enable

    • Do you have a link? Check the file permissions for the PNG fix. Remember, it only works on images from the <img tag, not CSS images.

      This confused me. The rocket theme template uses url background to put the logo png in place. How does that css url background img div override the blank.gif logo placeholder?

    • The blank.png <img> tag is only a placeholder so you can easily reformat it to whatever you want in the CSS.

      How does the png get placed into the placeholder?

    • I will take Equinox as my example.

      In the index.php, you will observe
      <img src="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/<?php echo $mainframe->getTemplate(); ?>/images/blank.gif" style="border:0;" alt="" id="logo" />

      You will notice it is loading blank.gif which is an image which is invisible.

      The other reference to focus on is id="logo". This allows us to control it in the CSS
      #logo {
      background: url(../images/style2/logo.png) no-repeat scroll 0pt;
      }

      Therefore, the logo.png will be loaded.
