dynamic style-chg not workin in IE..

[maya]

I'm trying to chg opacity for some divs on a pg, IE is ignoring it..
(works fine in FF..) why is this..

html, css, JS code is here..
http://www.francesdelrio.com/opacity.html

this is for something specific I need to do, have put simplified example
in above url.. (need to do it for relatively-positioned divs AND link
that triggers function is also in its own relatively-positioned div,
this is why example is like this..)

again, this works fine in FF, in IE it's not working at all..

would appreciate suggestions.. thank you very much..

alpha(opacity: 40)

Does this work statically? I can't test it now but I believe the correct
syntax was:

alpha(opacity=40)

gracias Alvaro... :)

of course what you point out is the correct syntax, I saw your post and
thought great -- this is solution, but.. it's still not working in
IE... this is so weird.. now I set one div to filter:alpha(opacity=40)
statically, but IE still refuses to cooperate....

this should have been a question for CSS group, sorry about that... but
I posted here b/c had thought problem was with JS code... however: here
is solution: http://www.quirksmode.org/css/opacity.html

you have to specify either width or height to div you want to apply
opacity filter to.. go figure.....;)

again many thanks..
