IE PNG Fix
The PNG Fix jQuery plug-in was developed to create a quick-and-easy fix for the PNG transparency issue in Internet Explorer 6. It's partially based on Angus Turnbulls TwinHelix fix, but aims to remove un-needed HTTP requests, demanded by an .htc CSS behaviour() based solution.
Please note, repeatable backgrounds are still not fully supported at this time. The IE AlphaImage filter is restricted to scaling backgrounds, rather than repeating (or tiling).

Examples
To apply the fix to all images within the page:
jQuery(function($) {
$("img").pngfix();
});A more efficient approach would be to apply it to all image elements that reference PNGs, or directly via IDs.
jQuery(function($) {
$("img[@src$=png], #image-one, #image-two").pngfix();
});Options
There is currently only one option for this plug-in:
- repeatMethod
- Choose between the three options for background scaling (inline with the MSDN guidance for the AlphaLoader filter:
Crop: renders the image at initial size.
Scale: stretches the image to the size of applied element.
