The opacity property applies to the element and all what it contains. The whole box and its descendants will be 'faded' or translucent [*]. Of course, the descendent elements will no have any opacity applied (unless some opacity is specified for them). As pointed out by Rik Cabanier, what the OP is (possibly) looking for is applying some transparency to the background (and eventually borders) of the element — in which case rgba() or hsla() colours should be used. [*] the wording in the spec is very confusing for stylesheet authors, I've seen that same request often posted to mailing lists (CSS-D and the like). Philippe -- Philippe Wittenbergh http://l-c-n.com
