Image with Alpha Transparency in IE ...

[Anonymous]

I didnt know to write this question in HTML or CSS forum ... anyway

If you know we can have a picture with alpha transparency,
we can use these kinda pictures in HTML design
they work fine in Mozilla or Netscape ,
but when its time for IE , it will show a GRAY BACKGROUND
as theirs transparency area !

Ive seen a web site using PNG images with alpha transparency
which work in IE as well !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
http://www.xaraya.com/

do you have any idea how can they make these kinda images ?
Ive tried a lot even using those PNG files in IE , but doesnt work!

is there any trick to get ride of GRAY BACKGROUND in IE
when we are using a transparent image ?

A quick Googling would have answered your question for you, but since I've seen this problem crop up recently, I'll give you a big hint. This is possible using IE's proprietary AlphaImageLoader CSS filter. It takes a bit of CSS hackery to keep other browsers from puking on it, but here's an example of it in action. Google has some articles about it, of course.
