I have a Silverlight control that tries to have the same background as the underlaying div, but I’m facing color difference problems in IE7/8:

That doesn’t seems to be a problem for Firefox.

Does anyone has a tip how to solve this problem? I try to avoid using the windowless mode in Silverlight and alpha transparency as 1st) it’s slower and 2nd) shows a bounding select box when you click in the control in Firefox.

    Fortunately I managed to solve the problem. Seems that it’s a gamma correction problem. The PNG file allows you to set gamma correction information and Silverlight and IE seems to handle it differently.

    This page explains the problem and saved the day. This tool as also necessary to remove the gamma information from the PNG.

    Hopefully this information will be useful for someone.
