• 1 Have you tried using an <object> tag instead of <img> as shown in the home page of ie7.js? – Darin Dimitrov Commented Jan 18, 2012 at 9:58
• My (now deleted) answer wasn't true. IE9 in IE7 mode seems to support base64 embedding where genuine IE7 doesn't. – thirtydot Commented Jan 18, 2012 at 10:14

You can't add base64 support to IE7 using a library. This is a feature that can't be added using JavaScript.

I don't think you can do this in IE7, however you can use MTHML instead to get inline images, here's a good post on it: http://www.phpied./mhtml-when-you-need-data-uris-in-ie7-and-under/.
