There are three different ways to change opacity for different browsers, but CSS knows only of simple opacity. Example: div { opacity: 0.8; filter: alpha(opacity=80); -ms-filter:"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=80)"; } two last strings are viewed as errors, but it doesn't work on ie5-8 without them. Is it an error to use filter and -ms-filter for opacity? Thanks for your time.
Yes -ms-filter is a vendor extension, and one that doesn't work well with the CSS syntax. filter is not a known CSS property. Cheers
Ok, fixed it with a help fix-ie-png script(or something). Thanks for fast answer by the way :D (Almost two years) By the way about "filter" as not a known CSS property http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_image_transparency.asp I always thought you were from the same company. (w3 and w3schools)
also talking about bugs, you have styling bug, https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/skins/standard/index.css on line 74 #query { background: url(index/search.gif) no-repeat; } background image defined but on this page https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/ #query is a list item without width and height properties and this image only annoys Tried it also in Validator 11 errors mostly by doubles of input ID's http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FBugs%2FPublic%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0 I have nothing against your page but I think at least your company must take standards more seriously.
