In IE there is delay in loading png images

Rails
1

Hi all,

Can some one help me in this issue. My application consists only png
images where it takes normal time to get loaded in all browsers except
IE.

In IE i can see nearly 950 requests where other browsers show only
around 65 requests. Here i have attached the screen shot which i took
using httpwatch in IE.

Here i noticed around 900 requests which is sent to this path
“http://localhost:3000/htc/png.htc”. I googled regarding this issue but
i didnt find any best solution.

In google many have posted that “png images not getting uploaded in IE”.
For me png images are getting loaded, i can see those png images but it
is taking long time to get loaded.

Thanks in advance,
shanmu

maybe you have a javascript or stylesheet that is calling the htc
file(proably to fix the transparency issue on ie6)

Are you very sure none of your stylesheets are requesting png.htc
somehow? png.htc is a known fix for PNG in IE. If your stylesheet is
linking to it, but it doesn’t exist, that might slow down your
request.

Hi all,

Thanks for your response. I am sure none of my stylesheets are linking
to png.htc but i wonder how this file has been triggered in IE browser
alone.

Around 900 requests are sent to this specific file(png.htc) though this
file has no link from any other file. It is taking long long time to
load the page.

Please help me
