There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes.

How to turn off the opacity in the drop down menus...

Hi

Don't see any opacity settings in CSS.

How do I turn off opacity in the drop down menus.

Thanks!

Opacity settings default to 1, fully opaque. If you want to add transparency to an element, you have to put it in.

Hmmm...well take a look at http://tisdall.org/ and mouse over Descendants on the menu.

Certainly looks like there is some opacity there and when one firebugs it the opacity seems to be build into the code.

I don't get it?

Thanks for responding Jerry.

PS - Opacity shows on Firefox and Chrome. Not sure about other browsers.

Yes, everything is, by default, with no CSS, fully opaque. You could code it as:

Code:
opacity:1;
but that's usually unnecessary.

To add transparency, you have to add code. For example, 50% tranaparent:

Code:
opacity:0.5;
fully transparent:

Code:
opacity:0;

Hey Jerry,

I really do appreciate your attention to this.

I do understand how to work with opacity in CSS. The issue I have is that there is opacity hardcoded into one of the php pages and I can not find it and when I say opacity I mean opacity settings of any kind from fully opaque to fully transparent.

When you click on the Descendants part of the menu you can partially see through the sub-menu item "Buzz Tisdall" to the H1 "Welcome to the Tisdall Family".

Then right click on the sub menu usng Firebug and you will see this bit of code:

<ul class="sub-menu" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: -229px; opacity: 0.97;">

Note the opacity style.

I have looked through the various files available in the Montezuma options section but I can't find it.
