anyone been able to effect the opacity of a colored div? allowing the content underneath to appear through? -like changing the opacity on an Adobe layer . . .

wanting a similar effect the .css 'on the fly' code gives, but by changing only a colored div atop the content rather than the style sheet.

would like to spend time with the style sheet method, yet have limited time for such enjoyment.

zarathustrai: Welcome. Its not clear what you are asking. Yes it is possible to change the opacity of a DIV so you can see what is underneath. If you want to dynamically change the opacity this can also be done - if that is what you want.

Could you give an example of how it was going to be used?

This will work in IE & Mozilla:

<DIV STYLE="filter:alpha(opacity=50);-moz-opacity:50%;"></DIV>

You can also dynamically change opacity and I wrote two JS functions that can do that (you can get them from my web site).

Great replies, guyz. Emperor - changing the alpha levels seems to be what was wanted. I thought it might be neat to change the hue of the entire page (pictures, text, etc) (without switching style sheets) by creating a semi-translucent div that sits atop - able then to change div's, thereby changing hues.

Max, couldn't find the js you noted about. did find many other *ahem* interesting pictures and such.

I'll work with the alpha filter, see what can be done.

Max helped me with this one, which uses some different opacity settings: http://www.runningwolf.com/development/code/hide_divs.htm

Pugzly, this link is to hide the layer, to change the visibility propierty, but nothing to do with opacity!

Wrong link?

The alpha filter plus Max's javascript works perfectly.
I put

onMouseOver="hideLayer('blue'); hideLayer('red'); hideLayer('orange'); showLayer('green');"

an so forth .. . into an image tag, then placed that same color image ('yourcolor.gif') with Max's

'STYLE="filter:alpha(opacity=45);-moz-opacity:45%;'

onto the appropriate div, allowing someone then to choose which hue they wish the content to take.
works rather well.
thanks max

Wakkos, if you take a closer look, you'll see that pages 5 & 7 are partially transparent (so, it's actually a combination of those two things - changing layer visibility and opacity settings)...

My fault too, as I didn't mention which pages to check. Sorry - I was on my way out the door to vacation when I sent that.

Hope it helped someone.

Working againg with this:

I use the mr.maX setOpacity and getOpacity functions, they work excelent.

But there's a way to make them work from anoter link?
I mean, if I make mouseover over a text, the image named"fulanito" or the layer named "sutanito" will get the opacity to 100%

I've been fighting with JS to do that, but I'm a total mess, and have nothing to show!

Thank you!

You can use the following code:

<A HREF="javascript:maxSetOpacity(document.getElementById('layerName'), 100);">CLICK HERE!!!</A>

BTW Note that you should use ID parameter to define names for images.

BTW, mr.maX, the ONMOUSEOUT="maxSetOpacity(this, 50)" is not working on your page under Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020530.

Starting from version 0.9.9, Mozilla has *seriously* fucked up support for alpha blending and they haven't fixed it even in final version, grrr...

The last version of Mozilla where alpha blending is working fine is version 0.9.8. I hope that they will fix this soon.
