Will MS Internet Explorer ever have PNG support?
I thought it was supposed to be implemented like 3 years ago?

Also, is it Firefox or IE that doesn't follow the (X)HTML standards?
Every website i make looks slightly different in each browser.
I know there's nothing wrong with my code since i carefully validate every
htm document on w3.org.

Thank you

No. Only the GDI+ included support for it, not MSIE.

Both of them are confirmed to the standard. But since their render engine
render (X)HTML in different way (the document object model is different, and
the method to generate each HTML element is also different), the page layout
and appearence will differ of course.

Web designers must learn to tolerate them.

No browser completely and correctly implement the various standards, but
Opera and the Gecko-based browsers (Mozilla, Firefox, Camino, Netscape
7, etc.) generally implement the standards better than IE.
 
I know about the "fake" PNG support IE offers.
I mean proper PNG support thought.
So that all you need to do is: <img src="img.png" alt="" /> and it'll work.

Oh, btw, when i say PNG support, i mean ofcourse the alpha-transparacy PNG
offers.
