Transparent frames

Just wondering if it is possible to make frames transparent so that mu background shows through each frame instead of having to set each frame with the same background.

check out what i mean here…

theres 4 frames but i want only the one background image to show through them all.

Any ideas? I’m using Dreamweaver MX

I think your just going to have to slice pieces up from the background image and place them using css on the background so that it lines up. Its really annoying to do, i recently tried this with 2 frames and ended up ditching the idea.

I cant see the link though so im not exactly sure if this is what your talking about.

there is a way to do it - you can create transparent frames using frontpage. i’ll have a look into it

ok thanks guys.

i might try using layers too…

divs would definitely be better, you could just set the overflow to auto so you could still have the scrolling and set the background color to transparent. As far as semi-transparent… don’t know how that would work.
