The plugins site is currently in development.

We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.

Internet Explorer 6 Browser Notification

Submitted by philstricker on August 1, 2010 - 9:15am

Very Simple And Easy To Implement

Utilizes the .browser property to detect browser type and version. When applied to a page, this simple plugin notifies visitors using IE6 with the following:

"This site has detected that you are using Internet Explorer 6 as your internet browser. Please note that this site may not display as intended. To obtain an updated version, please visit Microsoft."

This notification is wrapped in a small div that appears in the top left corner of the screen with a link to also hide it.

This jquery plugin when bound to a div, will show that div to users with ie6 browsers only. The div is clickable, which will result in a cookie being set advising the user has understood the message, which will not show again for 20 days.

DD_belatedPNG

Submitted by JonathanTNeal on December 10, 2008 - 2:23pm

The jQuery DD_belatedPNG plugin is a direct port of DD_belatedPNG, which allows you to use 24-bit alpha-translucent PNG images in image tags as well as for the background-image CSS property in Internet Explorer 6, supporting background positioning and background repeating. There is no usage of AlphaImageLoader, so this doesn't have the buggy z-indexing associated with that filter, and it responds to Javascript element.style assignments and the :hover pseudo-class.

iFixPng improved

Submitted by Yereth on June 24, 2008 - 11:47am

This plugin is an improvement to the original iFixPng plugin. It may use some more resources and work slower, but there are some important improvements:

  • The image or element with a background image doesn't have to be visible.
  • background-position is now supported, including an IE absolute position fix. (bottom: -1px || bottom: 0px)

Update

  • Since 3.1.0 background-position in percentages is fully supported. See the demo page for a demonstration.

Any improvements to speed or functionality are welcome. For as long as IE6 will be around, we need to tackle this problem together.

The unfix method was removed.

Usage:

// Set the transparent pixel
jQuery.ifixpng('/images/pixel.gif');
jQuery('img, .bgPng').ifixpng();
