Or you could use the the pure-css stuff that's already included with
mythweb. (well, pure css to call it -- I think it's javascript that
actually does the transparency activation)
Enough with the png transparency stuff (no offense to Harold -- his
message just happened to be the one I replied to). We've already said
that PNG's work fine in IE, and alpha transparency can be obtained using
the same technique that I use on the mythtv logo in mythweb.
With that said, *if* someone would like to write a mythweather module
for mythweb, I would personally love to see the mythweather images in
all of their transparent PNG glory, but would be just as happy to see
converted transparent-gif versions or non-alpha-transparency png files
(which IE can handle just fine). Or draw your own if you want to take
the time.
(and yes, I'm getting tired of all of the talking and arguing)
