  11. var arVersion = navigator.appVersion.split("MSIE")
  12. var version = parseFloat(arVersion[1])
  13.  
  14. if ((version >= 5.5) && (document.body.filters)) 
  15. {
  16.    for(var i=0; i<document.images.length; i++)
  17.    {
  18.       var img = document.images[i]
  19.       var imgName = img.src.toUpperCase()
  20.       if (imgName.substring(imgName.length-3, imgName.length) == "PNG")
  21.       {
  22.          var imgID = (img.id) ? "id='" + img.id + "' " : ""
  23.          var imgClass = (img.className) ? "class='" + img.className + "' " : ""
  24.          var imgTitle = (img.title) ? "title='" + img.title + "' " : "title='" + img.alt + "' "
