This solution is great but it breaks mouse event support in Opera 9. Events are stacked but never executed. Then, when you close the page or reload it, they ALL fire up at once! So it’s a good idea to try to apply this fix only on MSIE.

There’s one big misconception about browser sniffing: Looking at the user agent string might be bad, but not simply because of itself. It’s bad because it will never tell you for sure if the browser providing this user agent string will or will not support a certain feature. On the other hand, checking for a specific browser feature (or it’s absence) will never tell you for sure which browser is making a request.

So, always check for the exact browser property you intend to use. Do not check for some property, that is completely unrelated to the problem (like document.body.style.maxHeight in this case) just to try and identify a certain browser version. This is at least as bad as relying on user agent strings.

Here’s my mini-IE6 detector. IE7 doesn’t exhibit the flicker problem so why do anything? This will probably fire on IE5, IE5.5, etc. but who should really be using those anyway? ;)

//-- for IE6 but not IE7, Moz, Safari, Opera... if (typeof document.body.style.maxHeight == "undefined") { try { document.execCommand('BackgroundImageCache', false, true); } catch(e) { /* unless it's not IE6... */ } } // if

No More IE6 Background Flicker

The BackgroundImageCache command identifier was introduced by IE6 SP1.It will actually generate a JavaScript error in IE prior to that vesion.
So, someone might want to really sniff for IE6 gte IE6 SP1.
Check my site for details or go directly to the
Microsoft KB article.

The easiest thing to do is to stuff the command into any browser, without mercy, hidding the garbage inside a try{}catch(){}

Seems to be fixed with todays security patch for some reason.

I had the problem and did the fix but found out later that it was fixed without this hack too.
Can anyone confirm this? Would this be a positive message for IE6 for once ;-)

Why not use conditional comments already supported by all versions of IE?

document.execCommand(â€BackgroundImageCacheâ€, false,true);

All that sniffing… why not simply use conditional compilation:

/*@cc_on document.execCommand(â€BackgroundImageCacheâ€, false ,true); @*/

That is by far the safest way to do it.

For Javascript fix, we can simply add this :

//Fix for IE6-
if(document.uniqueID && !window.XMLHttpRequest ){
document.execCommand(”BackgroundImageCache”,false,true)
}

You absolutely do not want to do this with an expression.

It’s a cute way to write it, sure. But keep in mind that expressions are evaluated over and over again, many times per second, ad infinitum. This is the equivalent of a infinite setTimeout loop with an interval of 100ms. Not exactly what you’re aiming for…

Just use JavaScript.

if (dojo.render.html.ie60) { … }
// …or whatever library you prefer

This is great, for SP1 users but I wish it worked with the “:hover” pseudo-class for background changes.

An old alternative would be a simple webserver configuration, to send out caching instructions for static assets like images and javascript files. Beside solving the flicker issue, this would also improve performance from page to page basis. See more at http://deezsombor.blogspot.com/2006/05/flickering-css-background-images-ie6.html
