I'm trying to use Pie features but it doesn't work. I have tried it in many ways, to import it direct in the css, or in the index.php File within a style Tag. Also with the .php and .htc File.

Actually i have it embedded into the functions.php in Wordpress, like in this thread http://css3pie.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=8



The only effect i see is that the background-color disappears of the #nav Box. I hope someone can help me.

Thanks Jo Hansen

Okay, I have figured out that if I don't use background-images and set the background-color tags after the box-shadow declaration it works. But with this two lines, the whole layout crashes:

html, body { height: 100%; font: 13px/20px Cantarell, Verdana, sans-serif; color: #2D3B48; background: #d1c5ab url(images/gradient.jpg) repeat-x; }
#pattern {min-height: 100%; min-width: 100%; text-decoration: none; background: transparent url(images/pattern.png) repeat;}

This sounds like a known issue with z-index: http://css3pie.com/documentation/known-issues/

No. i don't use z-index either position in css.

Okay, if anyone else has this problem. The solution is to add an !important tag behind every background or background-color.

The !important is really not a good solution, as it will prevent PIE's rendering of e.g. border-radius from showing through.

I think you might have misread the documentation about z-index. The disappearing background problem occurs because you are not using position:relative. Without it, the CSS3 rendering often slips behind the background of parent elements.

By the way, I'd suggest upgrading to 1.0beta2, it fixes a huge performance problem with box-shadow among other things.
