to make the DIV transparent,

Answer 1

I had the same problem, this is the solution i came up with, which is much easier!

Make a little 1px x 1px transparent image and save it as a .png file.

In the CSS for your DIV, use this code:

background:transparent url('/images/trans-bg.png') repeat center top;

Remember to change the file path to your transparent image.

I think this solution works in all browsers, maybe except for IE 6, but I haven't tested.
