The sliders would be for, say, a gradient fill on a layer effect, right, or for creating a new gradient fill on the palette and then dragging the gradient tool across a transparent background? Yes, that's another way to do it, instead of what I described (a little more work, if you ask me, since black-to-white is already a preset, and creating a alpha channel for the whole image takes but a single click). And yes, the color slider would be green to green, and the opacity slider would be 100% to 0%. I wouldn't set it as green to black.

If I create a solid to transparent gradient in PhotoShop, I fill the shape (let's say a rectangle) with a solid color (let's say, green) in the rgb channel, and then put a black to white gradient into the alpha channel. I don't create a green to black gradient in the rgb channel the way safari does. >
