Question Have you used HTML STYLE Filters?
Althought they are IE only - (95%) of all Browsers

They are very interesting, fast loading, Search Engine Friendly alternative to Graphics

Yes - they are IE only, and are therefore not recommended. Use of IE has been dropping since Firefox was released, with FF now having an installed base of 18.7%

Just because IE makes it, doesn't mean one should use it...
Page Transitions and <marquee> anyone? =)

However these filters are useful to fix IE's lack of Alpha-transparency PNG support...
I still choose to avoid them at all costs...

Just because MS makes it does mean everyone shouldn't use it.
