Well, that makes sense. However, it seems both Safari and Firefox are then displaying it incorrectly. I have an untitled list with a semitransparent background, and the contained list items should be fully opaque (though they have no background, they have text). The way I can tell is that the yellow text is dimmer inside the li tags than in the main body. http://sotabot.com/site_map.html (the background image is 1.2MB, so it may take a bit to load on slower connections Also, this is one of my pages in full context; hopefully it won't be too hard to wade through) -- ~ Marshal Horn http://sotabot.com webmaster since May 6th, 2008 ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
