Am I right in thinking that images with transparent areas (GIFs or
PNGs) should allow clicks to "pass through" to any underlying elements
behind them?
I have had no luck getting this to work in IE or Firefox. I have tried
GIF and PNG with 'binary' transparency and PNG24 with 'alpha'
transparency (obviously the latter won't work in IE without the
AlphaImageLoade r trick).
Here is a test page for you to see it not working in action: http://mhm.mh.ohost.de/test/test-transparent-click.html
What I would like is for you to be able to click the Google link
through the transparent areas of the Yahoo logo. Please enlighten me if
this is possible at all. 8 6490 dj*********@gmx .net wrote: Am I right in thinking that images with transparent areas (GIFs or PNGs) should allow clicks to "pass through" to any underlying elements behind them?
No. Transparent images are still images, and any underlying elements
won't respond to mouse actions.

Is glass transparent? Do you expect to be able to shake hands with someone
behind a glass shield, like a window?

I take that back, you're not talking about AdSense, but still... do you have
yahoo's and google's permission to use their logo's (even if it is only an
experiment at this stage)? I would not like to get my logo mixed with that of my
competitor(s).

The glass analogy is interesting, but contradicted by Microsoft's page
on the AlphaImageLoade r:
"Transparen cy for PNG images is respected during text selection. This
means the user can select content that is displayed behind the fully
transparent region of a PNG image." http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/a...mageloader.asp
Here is a demonstration: http://mhm.mh.ohost.de/test/test-tra...nt-select.html
Using IE6 you should be able to select the text and click the link
through the transparent image. This would seem to be sensible behaviour
for all images with transparent areas. Why is it only possible with
images loaded using IE's AlphaImageLoade r?

Last time I checked IE didn't even know what transparency was, at least
not with PNG images.
