I’ve been learning about CSS Sprites. I have been skeptical because cross-browser compatibility is a high priority for my site. Don’t CSS sprites cause problems with this considering they rely on positioning? IE6 is specifically a concern for me.
Thank you!
It is supposed to work in all browsers, including IE6. Although a while back I’ve experienced problems with it in IE6 in a very specific circumstance which I unfortunately don’t recall in detail anymore. The symptom was that the sprite was wrongly positioned, but I at least recall that it was an easy fix. So whenever you run into problems, just ask a question here and we’ll help. I can recommend IETester to test the IE6 behaviour.
For the case you’re still interested, I’d recommend you this article.
