okay basically, at my site (http://www.geocities.com/randomlywandering), I have been using css for about two years...but the one thing I cant figure out is how to make my links be dropshadow on hover..right now I have a box around the links, and I changed the cursor. I'm currently using this code:

filter:DropShadow(Color=#FFC610, OffX=1, OffY=1);height=0;

but the one problem is that I have semitransparent frames. This makes it so that when I hover over the link, the dropshadow works, but just around that text, the light color of the semitransparency is taken away, and so I cant see my links. If you dont quite understand what I'm saying, then go here (http://www.sarahgordon.com) to view my old site, where the same thing happens. PLEASE help me asap! thank you!!
