  I think that post was made by me. I don't remember which thread it was,
though.
  The page is this one:

  The only browsers I know that support the alpha channel properly are
Netscape 6.x, Mozilla 0.9.x (which is practically the same thing) and
Internet Explorer 5.x for MacOS (the Windows version has no proper support).
