Thanks!

I've found out a bit about it for you, you can add inside either a table tag, or the body tag, even a div tag and the actual "iframe" tag, you can add this css style that makes each of those properties semi transparent. and it would look something like this:

<body style="filter: alpha (opacity=50)">

In here, the entire body of the html will be given an opacity, ranging from 0 to 100. 0 being completely transparent, and 100 being not transparent at all. and 50 being somewhere in the midde hence, semi transparency. its a really neat effect.

The down side to this, is tha it makes all of the content in the body transparent as well. as in the text, and any images or whatever i might have on the page. whether i apply this style in the body tag, the ifram tag, or a div tag. its all the same.

The other option i have found available to me is one that makes a table or iframe transparent, BUT not the content, (like the text). however what i don't like about this options is that it makes the iframe COMPLETELY see through. and i only want it SEMI- see through. semi transparent. this code works like this.

in the ifram tag <iframe src="blahblah.htm"></iframe> you would put this inside it like so:

<iframe src="blahblah.htm" allowtransparency="true">

and then in the actually html file tha you want IN the iframe, you would put this int he body tag:

<body style="background-color: transparent;">
