CSS Opacity help!

[Snappy]

as you can see the background and text are transparent I only want it so the bg is transparent and the text is on the top anyone know?
@Kaz @Sledmore close thread or delete it I found the solution opacity:0.1-0.9

The opacity is used to change the opacity of a division or whatever you're using. To change only the background color, you would need to use an rgba. If you're using color white, then type:

background: rgba(225, 225, 225, .5);

The .5 is the opacity. Play with it but it only goes up to .99. Hope this answered your question.

This ^^.

Using opacity is fine for single block elements but when you're having child elements (in most cases text or images inside a div) then it'll effect them as well. If you're just after the background, do what was mentioned above.
