IE8 Alpha Transparency not Working

[mfaisalwarraich]

Hello,

I am using the following method in CSS to make a PNG image transparency preserved:

	opacity:0.5;
	filter:alpha(opacity=50);

This works fine in Firefox, Chrome but not in IE8. I have also adaded behavior to the css file in the body rule which is as follows:

body{
div, img{
behavior: url(images/iepngfix.htc);
}

and added necessary files i.e. blank.gif and iepngfx.htc which is working in other browsers except IE8. please tell me wat i can do to have my image transparent in IE8.

Thanking you.

behaviors no longer work in IE8.
Perhaps this this answers your question.
IE is the worst browser on the planet.

I have already gone through it. and i have read some post at the IE site. i tihnk opacity is not supported in IE8. But i wonder the things which were working in IE6 and IE7 not working in IE8. this is really ridiculous.

Just tested opacity/Filter:alpha(op acity) in IE8 and it works fine...here's the
W3Schools link that I used to do so.

Just noticed your post, Frinny. W3Schools has nothing to do with the W3C and is totally unrelated.

I know that, but it's helpful in getting things to work sometimes :)

[drhowarddrfine]

Yeah but you called it a W3C link which might confuse others.

Ahh I see, I changed it :)

Still not right. It's W3Schools not W3CSchools.
