for the jQuery users:

Code:
$(document).ready(function() { // Fix background image caching problem if (jQuery.browser.msie) { try { document.execCommand("BackgroundImageCache", false, true); } catch(err) {} } };

and me, I'd not seen it to date and the example didn't cause the unwanted effect. Oh well, I shan't complain

Never seen this. I have seen the rollover flicker and I do my buttons the fancy, non-flicker way which actually makes it easier to do rollovers (for me) anyways.

Thanks for that Cam. Used the stylesheet option.

It works when the flash on the page has been clicked on but not until.

Will do a search here for kill the flash in IE.
