Replying to both your messages:
Transparent is valid for IE7 but will only work in IE6 if the file's a gif (as
yours are) not a png.
In answer to your other reply, the fact remains that there was/is a white space
in your code which messed up the table head rendering on my browser.
Unless I've totally misunderstood, the <thead> is not in question.
The <th> IS a child of <tr> and has been given a class of "header", but because
of the errant white space, the browser won't apply the "header" class to the
<th>.
Have you actually tried my amendment? It certainly made things jump into life
for me, and as I say, unless I've totally misunderstood you, it does do what
you want it to do.

Alan.

Subject: Re: [css-d] Background in IE6 and 7
I altered the css to include th.header, but as I thought this makes no
difference.
Anybody have a suggestion as to why IE is forcing the background to be white
when it is set to transparent?
Is transparent not a valid value for IE???
TIA,
Mark

Thanks, but the .header is not for the tr... it is for the child of the
tr... the white space is deliberate...
