Hi

I am using imageready to build our website and am trying to overlay some HTML text onto an image. The image is contained within a slice and then this is overlayed with another, slightly smaller slice which is set to ‘no-image’ with html based text in it. the background of the html slice is set to ‘none’, and I would assume that this would mean just that, and the underlying image based slice would show through. When previewed in explorer, all I can see is the edges of the underlying image around the edge of the html slice, and within the html, the text appears with a white background. I have checked the order of the slices and even tried to put the image on the background, which seemed a little extreme, and did not work anyway

I am confused. I have searched through the forums archive and someone had a similar problem but it did not really answer my question as the suggestion was to save the slice as a gif with a transparent background, but I want this to be html text, not an image to keep the already pushing it filesize down.
