probably as it has head and body tags. Not good for something that is working as a snippet. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums forum.myfreeforum.org

Doesnt work nick, If i just have the images it shows them in all 4 corners, however as soon as i add the text it crashes and you see just the standard light brown screen. So it seems to be a .css problem _________________ http://www.saynoto0870.com/ http://www.myshopbag.co.uk XXVIII/ I/ MCMLXXI

What i done was tpo grab an orginal motd.txt , and just add 4 images to the corners, this worked.

However as soon as i try and add anything in the middle that is when it doesnt work.

and that file you just pointed to reads as follows, (but i took that out as well)

www.assiejack.teamhost.co.uk/motd.html

using

www.assiejack.teamhost.co.uk/motd.txt

pngfix.htc

Code:

<public:component>
<public:attach event="onpropertychange" onevent="propertyChanged()" />
<script>

var supported = /MSIE (5\.5)|[6789]/.test(navigator.userAgent) && navigator.platform == "Win32";
var realSrc;
var transSrc = "trans.gif";

if (supported) fixImage();

function propertyChanged()
{
   if (!supported) return;

   var pName = event.propertyName;
   if (pName != "src") return;
   // if not set to transparent
   if ( ! new RegExp(transSrc).test(src))
   fixImage();
};

function fixImage()
{
   // get src
   var src = element.src;

   // check for real change
   if (src == realSrc)
   {
   element.src = transSrc;
   return;
   }

   if ( ! new RegExp(transSrc).test(src))
   {
   // backup old src
   realSrc = src;
   }

   // test for png
   if ( /\.png$/.test( realSrc.toLowerCase() ) )
   {
   // set transparent image
   element.src = transSrc;
   // set filter
   element.runtimeStyle.filter = "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='" + src + "',sizingMethod='scale')";
   }
   else
   {
   // remove filter
   element.runtimeStyle.filter = "";
   }
}

</script>
</public:component>

it shouldn't need a png fix, it's not an old browser it's a game that shows png sprays, so it wasn't needed anyways, but all the same will have to finish getting dod and have a bash on your server. _________________ CALM TIME: When calm time is called, all posters in a topic must take time out to calm down.

Why not use a borderless table with jpgs? If you wanted text over the pics, then some css to set the pics as bg's would've worked _________________ CALM TIME: When calm time is called, all posters in a topic must take time out to calm down. I'm better than Jose!
