Dreamweaver experts? How do i...
 

...make a floating textbox with a translucent background?

I've been struggling with this for days now. I have a photograph as a background and a dynamic scrolling textbox over the top of it in my main content page.

I want the text over the photo easier to read so I'd like to put a semi-translucent shade between the two so the text stands out more. Any ideas? Everything I've tried comes out solid or invisible.

Thanks,

Chris

I'm pretty sure CSS can be used to make a layer like you want.

First things I found that might do the trick:
