How Do I Lower The Opacity Of A Layer?

[MonkeyBeard]

I have a large image and a black layer in front of it. I don't want the black layer to be completely opaque because I want to be able to partially see the image behind it, so how can I lower the layer's opacity down to something like 70%?

Add this style in the head of your document

<style type="text/css">
<!--
.opacity70 {

	filter: Alpha(Opacity=70);
}
-->
</style>

Then set the class of your layer to opacity70

How do I set the class of my layer to opacity70?

Wait, okay... I figured out what you meant by that, so I named the layer "opacity70" and I pasted that code into my head... But it did nothing.

<div id="layer1" class="opacity70">div content<img src...blah blah></div>

Hope that makes sense, if not have a look at this tutorial
