Transparent Menu

I am trying to create a menu that will follow the screen down as the user scrolls and has a transparent background.

I have managed to get the menu to scroll which was pretty easy but I cannot get the menu to go transparent. I have the following in my data file:

Code:

fixMozillaZIndex=true; //Fixes Z-Index problem  with Mozilla browsers but causes odd scrolling problem, toggle to see if it helps
_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=150;
_subOffsetTop=2;
_subOffsetLeft=-2;


with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
fontfamily="Arial";
fontsize="110%";
fontstyle="normal";
offbgcolor="transparent";
onbgcolor="transparent";
menubgimage="/imgs/menu/background.gif";
padding=4;
separatorsize=1;
subimagepadding=2;
}

with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
alwaysvisible=1;
followscroll=1;
left=425;
orientation="horizontal";
style=menuStyle;
top=50;
aI("text=TITLE;");
}

with(milonic=new menuname("GSTOP")){
overflow="scroll";
style=menuStyle;
}



drawMenus();

This is running on a local server on my network so I dont have any public URLS where it can be seen sorry.

I have just checked and the transparency works fine with FF but does not work at all with IE 6.

Are there any work arounds?

Hi,

Someone with IE 6 would have to check it but we'd need a page.

You have a menu bgimage what is that? Is it some kind of transparent one? I'd think with off and on bgcolors set to transparent, then what you would see is that bgimage.
