Free CSS Opacity Transparency Menu Watermark on an image
The working code:
Author: Free CSS Menus: www.freecssmenus.co.uk
Description: This example of css uses an opacity setting to create a hover effect. Using different levels of transparency can create nice roll-overs on your website buttons, as you can see in this css script. Whilst the effects are pleasing to see, caution needs to be applied when using it as it can change the appearance of your page. Even though new browsers understand the opacity command, the W3C CSS Validator will generate errors when testing.

Comment from: JohnJim,
The main problem is that IE is a bit twitchy with the Opacity command.
I have made some radical changes to the css code and created a new div container for extra stability in Internet Explorer. Go back and copy the CSS and HTML and hopefully this should work.
Comment from: JimHi. I cant get the Free CSS Opacity Transparency Menu Watermark on an image working properly. From Win: In IE I have to stretch width a bit to have menu clean, but on hover image stretches.Fire Fox is perfect Its weird cuz your site looks good from IE/FF.
More CSS related to this script:
Css rollover uk map. Free rollover map of the United Kingdom. Use this smart css rollover on your own website so that visitors can quickly tell you where about in the UK they are from. This css effect is an illusion which could, potentially take any form of animation you wish. I use the word illusion because the brain immediately believes that something clever is going on.
With a little time and patience you could replicate this simple css rollover map, or you could just copy and paste these images and code.
CSS World Map Rollover. I made the UK rollover map last year and thought that it was about time the internet had a descent CSS rollover world map... well here it is.
Before I start getting emails, I know that this map is geologically inaccurate but it was the best map that I could find to use for this example. It is impossible to use the sliding doors technique with this example. To avoid slow down upon rollover you could use javascript to preload the images in the HEAD section of the code.
Transparent Opacity Rollover Menu. This css opacity menu uses different filter/opacity elements to work in most browsers. Although the W3c Css validator does not see these css commands as valid source code. It does create a nice effect for your menu / buttons. Here I have used a background colour, but the opacity filter also works when using background images. Try experimenting with opacity and send us your ideas to be featured on this website.
Orange CSS Rollover Button. This orange css button has been refined to contain only one image. Other rollover buttons of this nature would normally contain two images. Here we use the: background-postion command to display the image in four different positions. Why four? Well the normal state (no hover)has both left and right edges which are needed so that the button can stretch with more text. Apon the hover state the button uses another two edges.
