What png fix method is the most actual today? Lite-weight, with background-repeat and background-position support.

IE7.JS in my view:

IE7.js is a JavaScript library to make Microsoft Internet Explorer behave like a standards-compliant browser. It fixes many HTML and CaSS issues and makes transparent PNG work correctly under IE5 and IE6.

Create PNG's with Fireworks and encode them as PNG8 instead of PNG32. See: http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2007/09/18/png8-the-clear-winner/

No need for js, no need for css filter. Unless you need more then 256 colours, then you are stuck with filter/js fixes.

I believe that the DD_BelatedPNG method is superior to the filter method used by ie7.js.

You can use PNGs as the SRC of an element or as a background-image property in CSS.

If you attempt the latter, you will find that, unlike with vanilla usage of AlphaImageLoader, background-position and background-repeat work as intended.

As a bonus, "fixed" elements will respond to a commonly used set of Javascript style assignments, as well as the A:hover pseudo-class.
