Images in Internet Explorer
« on: May 21, 2011, 07:54:19 pm »
Has anyone noticed how IFE renders images blurry? For one of my web projects I need a repeating background and an image in front of it to line up in a really specific way, but according to IFE the background image is half a pixel smaller than it should be, and as a result, by the time the image gets repeated a few times, it's off by a few crucial pixels. And yes, apparently half a pixel is a valid number :P

Anybody know of any fixes, sort of like that font-smoothing thing?

Weird, I didn't notice that ???

Is it when stretching images? I know Opera blurs those by default now.

Nope, it seems to be overlapping half a pixel vertically ???

But that's a good point. Maybe IE thinks the container's smaller than it actually is? I'll look into that tomorrow.

Oh weird. I guess that could definitively screw up some page designs X.x

I remember in FF i had a similar issue while designing some forum themes: There was a 1 pixel gap between images forming the gradients and I had to increase the resolution width by 1 pixel to fix it.This happened on non-even widths, I think.

Well, just checked, and that's definitely not the problem, since there is no container to begin with. I guess IE just sucks :-\

I don't know, that's really odd. I haven't used IE in a long time, so I couldn't tell ya. D: I hope you're able to find a solution.

For other reasons I've given up completely on IE7 and lower, but it still has that bug in 8 :-\

Nice. DOes it work in every browser though? Is there a way for example to get rid of the blurring without having to change each browsers settings?

Nope, it's only IE, but as far as I know only IE sucks horribly at rendering images by default.

That's a good idea. Fixes an unimaginable number of other bugs too.
