A Better Transparent PNG Javascript For IE?
If you attempt to use a 24-bit translucent PNG image as a background image or as an element’s SRC attribute, IE6 yields an unsightly grey (sometimes greenish) background behind the image’s translucent colors.

This script reclaims all your background positioning controls by avoiding AlphaImageLoader, AND fixes the grey background issue!
