For my girlfriend's birthday, I am working on a surprise website for her. However, I have encountered a minor visual problem in Internet Explorer 8 (and possibly 7) with the fade in/out effect when switching images in an iframe gallery. While other browsers maintain a white background for a polished look, IE fades out to transparency and then back in.
To replicate this issue, visit her new site in IE8, click on one of the sections that loads in a fancybox iframe, and observe the image switch effect. Then, open the iframe directly to see everything appears as it should.
When transitioning between images:
I've attempted to set background-color: white in various places without success. The IE-specific allowtransparency property on the iframe element hasn't made much difference either. I've tried both allowtransparency="false" and removing it altogether.
Edit: Also, Galleria seems to handle the fade in/out effect by adjusting the inline style: changing opacity from 1 to 0 and back again.
