how to not apply opacity for child element?

Is it possible with css or jquery to apply transparency/opacity to an element and not have that affect child elements?

Answer 1

Maybe you will want to set the background opacity

/* Fallback for web browsers that doesn't support RGBa */
background: rgb(0, 0, 0);
/* RGBa with 0.6 opacity */
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);
