            1) Use relative (background-image:url(../images/test.png)) rather than absolute references (background-image:url(/images/test.png)).

            2) Add the following JavaScript to the head of your page:

            try {
              document.execCommand("BackgroundImageCache", false, true);
            } catch(err) {}

            Description

            When using IE 6, images used in CSS styles may not be cached. For example:

            background-image:url(/images/test.png)

            may cause IE 6 to repeatedly load the resource.

              Assigning to Mircea to consider implementing the second work-around as part of the ICEfaces framework.
