Never existed. It has always been dependent upon the image file itself to
already have the mask data in it. Gif files of course were the images that you
could do this with, and I don't remember Windows Paint being able to create
transparent gif files.
The last time I looked into html standards, I don't believe there was such an
idea on the board for inclusion into the html standards.
Gif is still the universal image for transparent images with HTML. Png files of
course have this ability also, but that's limited to all browsers except Internet
Explorer. And from what I understand, Microsoft has no intention of ever
meeting the html standards with regards to png files, or anything else for that
fact.
