Live opacity of fonts in Internet Explorer

Just recently, I discovered how to use Opacity with CSS and while I get transparency where I want, IE does not display the fonts correctly.  Not even close!  Mozilla and Safari work fine, so no problem.  But for some reason any police resembles the old spelling, back in the days where the only font color was green this is especially noticeable on the 'C' in Contact.

CSS:

{#navBar}
position: absolute;
left: 3px;
top: 362px;
Width: 960px;
height: 37px;
z index: 4;
background-color: #eaeaea;
Filter:alpha(opacity=70);
opacity: 0.70;
moz-opacity:. 70;
do-family: Century Gothic, 'Lucida Grande', ' Lucida without ', without serif.
cursor: pointer;
}

Hello

Sorry I could not help, the fix I found and you made was also for IE8 or IE8 in compatibility mode, but IE7 works sometimes with this fix, but not across all filters, (sorry, but all of them control in all browsers, is not something I saw, but I can just create a test page to find out).

In any case this is what microsoft had to say about the bug in IE7-

In order to ensure good legibility of text in Internet Explorer, in the Release Candidate version, we decided to disable ClearType on items that use any DXTransform.  We will text in elements as text with antialiasing, in order to increase readability.  The rest of the text on the page is rendered with ClearType.  This may explain why some sites (or parts of sites) will be aliased text, rather than ClearType.

Unfortunately, they decide not to solve this problem in version IE7 or IE8 is released, I find it interesting that they say, it increases readability, if so why have cleartype at all?

  • Landing Page fonts in Internet Explorer default Times New Roman?

    Is anyone else noticing that the police on landing pages is failing to Times New Roman? I placed the Arial font and it works fine in Chrome and Firefox, but in IE it keeps defaulting to Times New Roman. I can change this by going to the source code of each text box and setting the font family, but it becomes monotonous. Has anyone found another solution?

    Hi Krista,

    I don't know how you are using the editor, but it seems that you can be by selecting your text and change the font size using the tools. When you do so, a tag is added to your section of text. When this is done, you select your size, but you do not specify the police. The tag that results is as follows: . Because the 'face' is not defined, default IE to the default font of the browser. So, you have a few options.

    1. When you set the size of your font in the editor, set the font as well.

    2 Add this to your CSS code snippet between the tags - font {font family: arial ;}}

    Please let me know if this solves the problem for you!

    Best,

  • Is text quality of significantly lower than Internet Explorer Web sites, there a solution for this?

    The quality of the text on Web sites is pretty poor thin type and definition blurred, but images are good. The quality is much worse than IE8 on the same computer.

    Firefox uses your setting at the level of the system for ClearType anti-aliasing fonts. Internet Explorer has a separate setting, so you can use ClearType in IE even if you don't use it - the system-wide. Which is why you see a difference.

    You can check your setting of ClearType by following the steps in this article:

    Because I am running XP and I can't use a newer version of Internet Explorer 8 - 8 cannot handle everything on the net these days. I intend to switch to FireFox, but if this can not be repaired I will have to look into Chrome instead.

    Hi, I recently moved from my trusty XP to a new with Windows 7. I used to regularly use the Windows Live OneCare safety scanner - usually just clean - especially to clean the registry. I used to find after receiving updates Microsoft, the registry needs to be cleaned. I would like to do similar now.

I went with this and ensure that enough werer there are 100 registry errors to be fixed. Since then, I've been unable to use it. A message appears on the bottom of my screen saying. When I click on the button to install the scanner, wait please sign lights up a message appears saying "Internet Explorer blocked a control Active X, so this page will not display correctly." Then blue, he says "what is the risk. There is not the possibility to allow the Active X control. We once I went into Windows and the security option and clicked on each ActiveX little to ask. At that time, he was installing the scanner. However, when I clicked on that he returned to tell the scanner to install.

  • Problems with Windows Live Messenger, Windows Media Player and Internet Explorer proxy servers...

    I recently had problems with the above programs and their connection to the internet. I did not quite understand what was going on until I tried to connect to Windows Live Messenger a day and it wouldn't let me not connect due to a problem with the proxy server and important ports... And since then, I was not able to browse the web with Internet Explorer, download Windows Live, nor access the music store online for Windows Media player. Can someone help me with this problem?

    J2BJosh,

    It is important that you try some of the solutions provided Karena so that we can continue to resolve the problem.
    Here are some important steps to try I think solve the problem:

    Add-ons add functionality (for example, extra toolbars, animated, stock and pop-up blockers mouse pointers) to your web browser. While Add-ons can enhance your online experience, they can sometimes interfere or conflict with other software on your computer. Try to start Internet Explorer without Add-ons to see if the problem goes away. Here's how:

    • Click the button start , click principally made programs, accessories, click System Tools and then click Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).

    If disabling all add-ons solves the problem, you can manage add-ons to disable all add-ons and then put modules only as needed. This will allow you to figure out which add-on is causing the problem.

    Open Manage Add-ons

    1. Open Internet Explorer by clicking on the button start . In the search box, typeInternet Explorer, then, in the list of results, click on Internet Explorer.

    2. Click on tools and then click on Manage Add-ons.

    If disabling modules does not resolve the problem, try resetting Internet Explorer to its default settings. This removes all changes that have been made to Internet Explorer since it was installed, but it does not delete your Favorites or flows.

    1. Close the Windows Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer.

    2. Open Internet Explorer by clicking on the button start . In the search box, typeInternet Explorer, then, in the list of results, click on Internet Explorer.

    3. Click Tools and then click Internet Options.

    4. Click on the Advanced tab, and then click Reset.

    5. In the reset Internet Explorer settings dialog, click Reset.

    6. When you are finished, click Close, and then click OK.

    7. Close Internet Explorer and reopen it before the changes take effect.

    Hope that helps!
