Not sure exactly how to rectify this problem, but the new version of vegadns 0.9 has a problem loading in IE. What i've found is that IE has a problem with PNG Transparent files. They have a knowledge base article about this located here

but to be honest, i really don't know enough about php to include this in the header.tpl file.
I noticed that there are alot of articles about this problem as i searched google, but again would rather leave this up to Bill Shupp to implement as i'm sure he can do it much better than i can. It all works fine in Firefox and Netscape by the way.


Wow, I was unaware of this. IE on OS X, which is what I use for testing IE, does not have this problem. But I can see it now in Windows. Worse yet, the background image is displayed as black, so you can't read the text at all.

It's amazing to me, and quite irritating, that Microsoft appears to be refusing to solve this given the problem's age. I for one have better things to do with my time than write workaround patches for a crappy and obstinate browser. If anyone else is interested in solving this, I'll certainly consider the patch.

Thanks for pointing this out.

PS - Thanks for a great tool.


You're welcome, I'm glad you find it useful.
