How to make a DIV transparent?

[LoveToCode]

Hello!

I have a footer that I am tryhing to make transparent. Currently, it show up as white?!

	<div style="clear: both;"></div>
	<div style="background: transparent; height:5px; float:left; width:625px;">
				<div style="float:left;"><img src="<%=Core.Config.Root%>/_img/_cpanel/corners/grey_bl.gif" /></div>
				<div style="float:right;"><img src="<%=Core.Config.Root%>/_img/_cpanel/corners/grey_br.gif" /></div>
			</div>
			<div style="background: transparent;padding:10px; float:left; width:625px;" align="center">

			</div>
		</div>

	</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Any clue to what could be making it white and not transparent?

Thank you!!
