[invisiblepen]

all i want to know is the codes for having boxes on the text in your blog (xanga) and have the background of the blog box sheer white so i can still see the background behind it. i've seen it but never figured out what the what the codes are on how to make it. i have a background picture picked out all i want it the boxes to go on top.

if youre talking bout blogspot [not xanga], then heres an example of a box with a sheer background:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><div style="border: 1px; padding: 5px; left: 325; position: <br />absolute; top: 275; height: 305; width: 285; overflow: auto; background color: #FFD9EC; filter:Alpha(Opacity=50,FinishOpacity=50,Style=2); z-index: 1;"><br /><p><td><font face= "tahoma" color="#000000" size="1"><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

see that it says "Opacity"? change it to 50 rather than 100.
i hope this is of some help to you. ><
