Adjusting opacity

Recommended Posts

Is there any way to adjust the opacity of an embedded "movie"? Same question for select lists in a form. Examples:<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload2.macromedia.com/get/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab; ID=blah1 width=120 height=60><param name=movie value="http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ name=quality value=high><param name=bgcolor value=#000000><embed src="http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/; quality=high bgcolor=#000000 width=120 height=60 type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></object>And...<select name=lang><option value='en' selected>English<option value='sp'>Spanish</select>I got everything else to work except those two tiny bits. The embedded "movie" file was coded by my friend since I have no experience there. The opacity change is needed more witht the movie. Even if I could just change the color of the select box with CSS, that would be great--thanks

Select tags are responsive to CSS. I'd suggest creating classes in your stylesheet and then using something like:<select name="lang" class="lang">A bit of net research I just did suggests that the borders and arrows in a select box will not respond to CSS. However, background color, fonts etc. will (or at least should).

I don't think there's a way to change video opacity using CSS. There may be a way to change the video opacity using javascipt, but it's highly improbable. Maybe if you have Windows Movie Maker, you can edit the movie from there and see what you can do about its opacity.
