Opacity CSS that works for all browsers?


Can someone recommend the safest approach for giving an OPACITY VALUE to a DIV TAG using CSS?

Solution

  • Straight from Css-Tricks.com (this covers everything I can think of):

    .transparent_class {
      /* IE 8 */
      -ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50)";
    
      /* IE 5-7 */
      filter: alpha(opacity=50);
    
      /* Netscape */
      -moz-opacity: 0.5;
    
      /* Safari 1.x */
      -khtml-opacity: 0.5;
    
      /* Good browsers */
      opacity: 0.5;
    }
