IE6 PNG transparency issue with image slider controls


Question

Hey all,

Im having some troubles with my website (see here). Im using the Nivo Slider and the iepngfix.htc.

The problem is, the PNG fix doesnt seem to like background-position, and i end up with both (transparent) arrows pointing backwards in IE6! (Have a look at this screenshot to see what i mean).

Here is the CSS:

/* Transparent PNG Fix */
div.nivo-directionNav a, a.nivo-nextNav, a.nivo-prevNav {
	behavior: url('/js/iepngfix.htc')
}

/* Direction nav styles (e.g. Next & Prev) */
.nivo-directionNav a {
	display:block;
	width:30px;
	height:30px;
	background:url(../images/slider/arrows.png) no-repeat;
	text-indent:-9999px;
	border:0;
	position:absolute;
	top:40%;
	z-index:99;
	cursor:pointer;
}

a.nivo-nextNav {
	background-position:-30px 0;
	right:10px;
}

a.nivo-prevNav {
	left:10px;
}

Any ideas?

Thanks

I think the best option would be to separate the arrows in to two images, and then give nivo-nextNav and nivo-prevNav their own separate background images.

This should avoid the use of background-position and work in theory.

here's another png fix that supports background images with positions.

he also has another script that does the same thing but also does rounded corners in ie.

Hello! I see that you got Nivo Slider to work in IE6.

I'm using it also. It works perfectly in all browsers, except in IE6.

This is how it shows when the page loads:

And this is how it shows when it changes to another image:

Any Ideas on how could it be fixed?

Thanks in advance. Any help will be appreciated.

    • Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm

    • If Ford would stop hiring SUITS to run the company, and put CAR GUYS back in charge perhaps they could do better. Heck, the only CAR they produce today is the Mustang. Hey Ford! Not everyone needs/wants an overpriced SUV or pickup truck that is so tall you have to have a step ladder to get in and out of it.
    • Amazing how some will just jump all over something. Probably the same people that thought Musk was a "tech god" before he saddled up with "bad orange man". Before, they worshiped at his feet, including a lot of so called hollywood types. Now, because he fell off the plantation truck, they toss him under the bus.
