The text color has been set to the same as the background color to demonstrate this. Notes: For the Microsoft filters, color values are in hex with the first two digits specifying the alpha transparency. In this case, that's '80', equivalent to 0.5. :not(.IE) is added to exclude IE; no current version of IE understands the :not selector. '.IE' can be any valid classname that is NOT used anywhere else.</p> Wed, 14 Jul 2010 03:00:34 UTC https://snipplr.com/view/37237/cross-browser-background-opacity https://snipplr.com/view/19561/crossbrowser-pure-css-dropdown-navigation <p>To make the menu work in IE6 (which doesn't support the :hover pseudo element on anything but links and tables), the IE6-specific CSS calls on [Whatever:hover][whatever]. If using [Dean Edwards' IE7-js][IE7-js], this is unnecessary as his script fixes li:hover behavior in IE6.
