[jQuery] Re: need help with opacity
In addition to my previous words: every element which is within other element which has opacity lower then 1 will inherit its parent's opacity. For example if you place paragraph in div with opacity: 0.7, the paragraph will have the same (even if you give him opacity: 1) http://www.twinhelix.com/css/iepngfix/ The solutions from Turbodurso are OK, but I do not use JS for IE, I'm quite sure we can ignore IE 5, just focus on IE6 and higher So lets say this is the code: div id=transpBg pSome text/p /div normal css (even for IE 6) #transpBg { background: transparent url(transp.png); } css for ie 6 (in special stylesheet or star hack) #transpBg { background: none !important; /* necessary */ filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src=transp.png, sizingMethod=crop); /* check dependences between sizing method and how it shows pics */ z-index: 1; /* has Layout fix - there are some ways to do it this is one of them */ } But I'm sure you know it now, just wanted to help in case if you don't :) Tom

Ack, that's a bit of a blow :) Time to rethink my design concept... Thanks Tom.

When you set opacity: 1 for img it just mean that it has the same opacity as its parent (11%). The only thing you can do IMHO is to place the img outside the div and position it into right place. I hope I helped ;) Tom

Hey bob, you don't necessarily have to rethink your design, just use transparent png files (tiled for background) They can now render on all browsers (including IE 5 +) with this little fix : http://www.twinhelix.com/css/iepngfix/ Also, this dwld is quite handy for transparent backgrounds: http://css-tricks.com/examples/TranspFills.zip india

Yes, I realised this a few hours ago. I was focussing too much on the solid bg color.
