The problem is (I believe) IE specific and sometimes it just gets a little grumpy with setting styles and it needs a boot in the pants to get things running smoothly (like life really) and the boot in the pants I usually resort to is position: relative and it makes things work here too. I used something like this in my quick test. [code]body { background-color: #fff; } #mainDiv { background-color: #c0c0c0; filter: progid: DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=20); height: 500px; width:100%; } #nestedDiv { position: relative; filter: progid: DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=100); height: 250px; width:100%; }[/code] You should be just a little careful as it might make some other browsers grumpy so make sure you keep an eye out for it.
