Set The Opacity Only to Background Color Not On The Text In Css

Posted By Bajarangi soft , Posted On 09-10-2020

The opacity property is used in the image to describes the transparency of the image. The value of opacity lies between 0.0 to 1.0 where the low value represents high transparent and high value represents low transparent. The percentage of opacity is calculated as Opacity% = Opacity * 100

To set the opacity only to the background and not the text inside it. It can be set by using the RGBA color values instead of the opacity property because using the opacity property can make the text inside it fully transparent element.
Syntax:

element {
    background: rgba(red, green, blue, alpha);
    // CSS property
}

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>rgba property</title>
    <style>
        h1 {
            color: #e3a425;
        }
        h1, h2 {
            text-align: center;
        }
        div {
            background: rgb(241, 118, 60);
            padding: 10px;
            text-align:justify;
        }

        div.first {
            /*setting alpha = 0.1*/
            background: rgba(236, 168, 155, 0.1);
        }

        div.second {
            /*setting alpha = 0.3*/
            background: rgba(229, 212, 212, 0.3);
        }

        div.third {
            /*setting alpha = 0.6*/
            background: rgba(234, 128, 58, 0.6);
        }
    </style>
