CSS Transparent Table

[lordtron]

I am trying to have a transparent table(30%) and have another table within it thats not transparent.



Here is the code I am using to make the first table 30% transparent:

style="color:black;background:black;filter:alpha(opacity=30);-moz-opacity:.30;opacity:.30;"


What do I need to do to make the table within that one not transparent in anyway? I have tried several ways to do this and none seem to work or they just make it worse.

you might want to use CSS, since it would be alot easier to see.
tables can be given 'id' atribute
example

<table id="foo1">
<td id="foo2">
<tr id="foo2">

have you tried?

style="background-color:#000000 !important;"

i think it should work...

peace, bonzo

Alright where would I put : style="background-color:#000000 !important;"

I tried putting it on the table within the transparent table and it did nothing different. I even put it on the transparent table and still nothing happened.



Plus, I have id's on the tables and still nothing happens differently.

opacity:.50;filter: alpha(opacity=50); -moz-opacity: 0.5;

try this

style="color:black;background:black;opacity:.30;filter: alpha(opacity=30); -moz-opacity: 0.3;"

I want the text and everything else I put inside the table to be at 100%, I dont want anything but the first table to be transparent.

Give the text their own style.

<div id="content inside table" style="opacity:1;filter:alpha(opacity:100); -moz-opacity: 1;">Text</div>

Ive tried messing with semi transparent things before and found that its a bit of a pain. Hopefully once CSS 3 is finally made a standard things will be fixed. For now I'd say... I don't know. After all the other ideas didn't work I don't know what to say
