Ok, so I finally got my transparent iframes to work, and I put an opacity on the page that's actually in the frame. But the problem I have is that the opacity doesn't just go on the background it's on the words too! Can somebody help me? Here's the page for the whole code.

<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta name="Author" content="Dana">
<title>poemmain</title>
<style TYPE="text/css"> <!-- BODY {background-color: ffffff; filter: alpha(opacity=30)}--> </style>
</head>
<body>

<center><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><font color="#000066"><font size=-2>Welcome
to Dana Brand's page of her most spectaculorly future famous poems. Congrats!
You get to read them first off! Feel special because one day these things
will be my meal ticket, or at least part of it.</font></font></font></center>

You cant with the 'opacity' method, it does make everything opaque....you'll have to either use what i call the proper method (cutting up the image and codeing it back together) or use allowtransparency="true" method, just search the forum for "Transparent iframe" and you'll get all the codes etc you need....
