Hi Rob, In the past, I've used a combination of RGBA, IE's gradient filter and PNGs (for Opera and FF2) to achieve this effect. Hedger Wang has a similar experiment out there somewhere on the same thing. Here's my experiment with it: http://www.webdevelopedia.com/better_opacity.html and http://theholiergrail.com/sandbox/rgba-cross-browser.php Hope it helps. --Bill -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bill Brown, MacNimble.com :: "From dot concept to dot com since 1999" WebDevelopedia.com, TheHolierGrail.com, Cyber-Sandbox.com, Anytowne.com "The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.
