I’m a little unsure of what I am doing here, so please bear with me.
In my template, I reference two PNG images with transparency. I call the css externally via a chunk. here is a partial code listing of my template:
<title>[(site_name)] - [*pagetitle*]</title>
{{fphstylesheet}}
</head>
<body><table width="99%" height="625" border="0">
<tr>
<th height="247" colspan="3" scope="col"><img src="[(base_url)]assets/images/FPH Banner+Border.png" width="613" height="245" border="0" align="left" usemap="#Map2"></th>
</tr>
Why does the transparency plugin not work with this?

I’m really not that familiar with this plug-in in particular, but in general imagemaps require special scripting.
One method that works can be found here:

Try that method if you can’t get the plug-in to work for you.

That solution solved the transparency problem for me, Thanks!

Cool beans. Glad that did the trick. Can’t wait until IE7 is the only IE we need to care about (not that it’s not going to cause us grief for other reasons...).

I hear many people saying IE 7 is a piece of crap like previous IE versions that came before it, hope that it made at least some improvement or better yet put it to rest and let the other browsers take its place

Well I really don’t like it much myself. I actually like IE6 better. But in theory it will improve before the final release.
It seems to break a lot of my sites, which is damned annoying because it’s supposed to be more standards-compliant (and these sites work fine in Firefox, Opera, etc. as well as IE6). Plus I don’t like that it has no menu bar (although I gather they’ve added one that you can show or hide in the last release), and tabbed browsing is a big yawn to me. Between that and all the ActiveX trouble lately I’d say that IE is looking less and less attractive from my perspective (and I still use IE6 for regular browsing).
Yet somehow the conventional wisdon is that IE7 will be a Firefox-killer... So mebbe I’m just insane. It’s been implied before.
IE7 will be a great improvement in making MS an almost pleasant browser to build sites for as so many required hacks will no longer be required. The fact it won’t support generated content will be a bummer though.

I have small Pb of use of the images to format png with IE.
The images present a small red cross. I do not understand where that can come. I installed the file pngfix which functions correctly with the blackround-images. On the other hand, those inserted with FCKEditor generate a small red cross.
Have-You an idea for corrected that?
I have tested this plugin: when it is activated the page becomes very black. I do not have any idea of the origin of this problem.
Perhaps what that comes from the snippet MaxiGallery? I do not know.

does an image path have to be defined in the plugin ?
I notice when this plugin is enabled, if i have an image inside the template <img src it shows up invisible i’m assuming replaced by spacer.png or should the images be in the assests/images instead of template/default/images
by the way the new MODX repository blows, hard to find things, the original one is better because it shows everything on the same page JMHO
