Hello:

I'm using GWT 2.3 and I've read that ImageBundle manages in a right way the IE5+ issue about PNG transparency ? 
Is it right ?

Respect about others images not bundled ( background images in CSS )  , what do you recommend to fix this question ? 

Thanks and regards

GWT does not support IE5. Further, ancient browsers don't not support dataurl's either, which are how GWT commonly sprites small images on modern browsers. 

Still, there is hope, according to the docs:
The native format for the composite image is png, and versions of Internet Explorer prior to 7 cannot render png transparerency. To get around this problem, we make use of a plugin built into the operating system.


Sincerely,
Joseph
