Thanks Masterpass. So it turns out that background alpha channel transparent PNGs cannot be repeated. Here's a snippet from <a href="http://24ways.org/2007/supersleight-transparent-png-in-ie6" rel="ugc">http://24ways.org/2007/supersleight-transparent-png-in-ie6</a><br />

<div class="indent">
&quot;The AlphaImageLoader does work for background images, but only for the simplest of cases. If your design requires the image to be tiled (background-repeat) or positioned (background-position) you’re out of luck. The AlphaImageLoader allows you to set a sizingMethod to either crop the image (if necessary) or to scale it to fit. Not massively useful, but something at least.&quot;<br />

PNG needs to be transparent and repeat-x in IE6

ie6pngrepeatx.jpg

I have a layout where all the div elements have a semi transparent PNG background and they are set to repeat-x or repeat-y. It renders correctly in all browsers except IE6. I was wondering if it was possible using CSS or Javascript to fix this?

Is there a fix for repeating transparent PNG background images in IE6?

Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, and social network services using a wide variety of languages and standards, including the familiar HTML, JavaScript and jQuery, ASP and ASP.NET, PHP, ColdFusion, CSS, PHP, Flex and Flash, but also the implementation of a broad list of standards including XML, WSDL, SSDL, VoiceXML and many more.

Web Languages and Standards

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a language used for describing the look and formatting of a document written in a markup language. Usually used to change web pages and user interfaces written in HTML, it can also be applied to any kind of XML document. CSS is designed primarily to distinguish the content of a document from its presentation.

jQuery (Core) is a cross-browser JavaScript library that provides abstractions for common client-side tasks such as Document Object Model (DOM) traversal, DOM manipulation, event handling, animation and Ajax. jQuery also provides a platform to create plugins that extend jQuery's capabilities beyond those already provided by the library.
