Can I set background image and opacity in the same property?

Question

I can see in CSS references how to set image transparency and how to set a background image. But how can I combine these two in order to set a transparent background image?<

Answer 1

In your CSS add...

 filter: opacity(50%);

In JavaScript use...

 element.style.filter='opacity(50%)';

NB: Add vendor prefixes as required but Chromium should be fine without.
