About Lesson

The opacity property in CSS is used to set the transparency of an element, making it partially or fully transparent. The value of opacity is a number between 0 (completely transparent) and 1 (completely opaque).

Syntax:

selector {
opacity: value;
}

Example:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang=”en”>
<head>
    <meta charset=”UTF-8″>
    <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0″>
    <style>
        .transparent-box {
            width: 200px;
            height: 200px;
            background-color: #3498db;
            opacity: 0.5;
            /* Set opacity to 50% */
        }
        .opaque-box {
            width: 200px;
            height: 200px;
            background-color: #e74c3c;
            opacity: 1;
            /* Set opacity to 100% (fully opaque) */
        }
        img {
            height: 200px;
            background-color: #3498db;
            opacity: 0.4;
        }
    </style>
