For some reason with I put the following three lines in
skins/MonoBook.php in the <head> section...
<!--[if lt IE 7.]>
<script defer type="text/javascript"
src="pngfix.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
... And have pngfix.js in the main wiki directory I get an "Error on
page." message in the bottom of IE and no transparent images, yet if I
view the source, save it as a .html and put it in the root of the wiki
directory and browse to that as a html page it works fine without error?
Any ideas here?
Thanks,
~Eric

Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] Transparent PNG's in IE?
I was wondering if there was some one-time process that merged the
background with the PNG to give it the appearance of being transparent
or if it was being done on the fly.
Normally I would be able to right click on the image in firefox and view
the image or copy the source and be able to tell but for some reason I
can't or Firefox can't figure it out and doesn't even treat it like an
image.
Anyway, I searched around a bit and found this....

This seems nice because it works globally.
If I wanted to include the following snippet on EVERY wiki page, where
is the place to do it? I'm sure there is a place.
<!--[if gte IE 5.5000]><![if lt IE 7.0000]>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="pngfix.js"></script>
<![endif]><![endif]-->

How is this happening?
A JavaScript hack, I believe.
Can the same method work with other PNGs placed inside
pages?
Tried to see?
