[OpenLayers-Users] Printing in IE6

[Andreas Hocevar]

Hi,

IE6 cannot handle transparency of 24bit PNGs without an alpha hack,
and this alpha hack only works for the browser view.

If your layers all come from the same server, you can create one map
image that contains all your map layers. This is just one of the
solutions that are described in detail at [1].

Regards,
Andreas.
