Getting iepngfix to work

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
I just spent a lot of time pulling my hair out trying to get iepngfix to work with Codeigniter. I tried every path I could think of in my css file (for the behavior property), but my htc file simply wasn't being found. I searched the internet for a solution, but it seems like I'm the only one on the planet who has had any major trouble with this.

Finally I stumbled onto the "base" tag, which is something I didn't know existed. By putting

Code:

<base href="<?=base_url()?>" />

in the head tags I solved the problem. The base tag provides a default reference point for paths related to page. I have no idea why that was necessary, but it worked.

This works for me in my IE css override file

Code:

img { behavior: url(/js/iepngfix/iepngfix.htc); }

coolgeek: Before putting in the base tag, this line of code did not work with any path:

Code:

img, div {behavior: url(fix/iepngfix.htc);}

umefarooq: Thanks, that does look easier.
