[Pro] can this be done with TABLE ROWS?

Hi,

easy one…

Can table rows have shading/color that is semi- transparent?

In other words a table row that is white with black text, but the white is semi-transparent to see the picture behind the table?

Thanks!

Barry

i thought maybe I could just put an HTML box over the table and give a background color with little opacity- but then I realize I cannot edit the text in the table as the HTML box is on top…

This seemed to work.

-in new row, insert HTML box-
-click background color (ex red), and set opacity
-cLick inside HTML box and put text that I wanted in the table

Now text lays over light red.

Another way I saw is to create an HTML box with color and opacity and just lay it “under” the entire table.

Another way would be to assign a class style to the row and add a tiling background image via CSS. The benefit being slightly cleaner markup. Always more than one way to do something.

You can also give the entire table a background image in the same way.

Thanks Todd,

I should have mentioned I have the table over background supesizer images, that is why I needed the shading.

If you create a semi-transparent image the effect will be the same, ie, the supersizer image will show through the tiling graphic.
