How Do I Create Background Image Styles with CSS for IE6?

Asked by JaeWebb in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), Internet Explorer Web Browser, Safari Web Browser

Tags: , ,

The error that I need to solve centers on background image positioning with CSS in IE6.  The website looks fine in IE7 and Firefox.  Unfortunately, in IE6, background images that are displayed with code like this:

------------css/foundation.css-------------------------

#TopNav li.lastNav {
      margin-top:0;
      margin-bottom:0;
      padding-top:0;
      padding-bottom:0;
      padding-right:19px;
      border-right:none;
      background:url(../images/right_nav_corner.png) no-repeat right;
}

------------css/Spry/SprySlidingPanels.css------------------------

#spc2 {
      background-image:url(../../images/ohp_polaroid_balloons.png);
      background-repeat:no-repeat;
      background-position: 164px 15px;
}

-------------------------------------

...end up behaving as if there was no code to style the images at all.  You can see the error if you look at the last link in the horizontal navigation at the top ('contact us') or if you go the 'parade participants' page and click any of the green buttons in the horizontal slider widget:

Can you tell me how to make this work in IE6?  Right now I'm using pre-processing statements inside the head tags to display styles specific to IE6 (index page only); I'd like to continue with with format if possible.
