M$ Internet Exploiter bugs

the recent 2 days handgestrickt tried to clean the outlook of some websites in M$ Internet Exploiter. there were a few bad surprises:

1. the internet explorer cannot show the alpha-channels and transparencies of PNG-graphics. there are 2 workarounds for this problem. the JavaScript-based pngfix.js and the CSS-behavior-based pngbehavior.htc. both scripts do a very complicated workaround. it depends on the personal taste which one to use. we use the CSS-hack!

2. a lot of "CSS-box-model"-bugs. no need to count them, it is too much work! one has already done this work for us: Explorer Exposed! this site contains a lot of bugs and workarounds. our problem was, that we wanted to put a border around an image. the image also had a CSS-padding. Firefox and Opera do it, but not our beloved "security hole No. 1".
