ClearType influences CSS filters in Internet Explorer 6
Browser, CSS December 19th, 2007A few weeks ago I had one of the seldom moments in which I had to use Internet Explorer 6. I examined some memory usage oddities in connection with the AlphaImageLoader object when I noticed a strange rendering behavior regarding the proprietary CSS attribute filter. I just added a simple filter like
<span style="filter:Alpha(opacity=100, style=0)"></span>
and my text just looked blurry.
The text appears blurry only if ClearType is enabled.
Did your noticed this behavior by yourself? If you have any experiences with the attribute filter in connection with ClearType, please let me know!

I’ve just noticed that rather strange bahavior from IE.
Have you found a solution to share with the world (or at least me ;-) )?

I am sorry, but I have not found a solution yet. This issue affects IE’s rendering engine…
