[Cialug] Iowa Ruby Brigade

[Tim Wilson]

Glad to be of help.

Regarding other IE versions, there's some more info elsewhere on the site.
According to the page:
Why only versions 5.5 & 6? Because Windows IE versions prior to 5.5 do not
support the filter which fixes the PNG problem, and version 7 (not yet
released at the time of writing in January 2006) is reported to have fixed
the issue entirely.

So I would guess that IE 5 would still have the problem.  But, who uses IE 5
anyways? :-)

What I'm not sure about is IE versions for other OSes.  Did the problem
exist there, and does this fix it?
