Hey guys, if someone can help me out with this problem that would be great. I just uploaded my new site and it seems to work fine except for IE on a Mac and PC (which is the most important I know).

My problem is the background image is being ignored on the top iFrame with IE.
It works fine in Safari, firefox.

Here is how it SHOULD look:

Here is how it looks in IE:
http://homepage.mac.com/bitfly/.Pictures/Misc/wrong.jpg

And here is the website:
www.bitflydesign.com


Any easy fixes or workarounds?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

the background image, "frame_background.gif" isn't in the iframe page, it's in a td containing the iframe in the main page. I would put it the iframe, with fixed position and no scrolling if necessary.

Someone else on another forum said this and I THINK it worked.

<iframe src="feature1.html" name="iframe2" width=665 height=200 hspace=0
vspace=0 frameborder=0 marginheight=0 marginwidth=0 noresize
scrolling=auto allowtransparency="true">

in the featured1.html page you need to add this to the body class

background:transparent;
