Question special effect string?

Hey all, I'm using a DHTML menu for my webpage. It has a line of code in that allow the menu to fade in. You can of course change the duration of the fade. You can also control the opacity of the menu boxes. The line of codes looks like this:

effect = "Fade(duration=1.5);Alpha(style=5,opacity=95)" // Special effect string for IE5.5 or above

My question is this. I never use internet explorer....only firefox. The effect is present on an internet explorer, but not on a firefox browser. I was wondering if any of you would know any other code I could put in that would achieve the same effect...but work with both browsers. There seems to be some discrepancy in the way the menu looks on both browsers. In firefox...it's lower than I'd like it to be and yeah...just stuff like that. Solutions or any help would be awesome! Thanks for reading! If you need the entire code for the menu, I could faciliate providing you with that.

Re: special effect string?

Firefox uses the CSS property moz-opacity (or just "opacity"), not Alpha. It would be easier to find a new script than to trouble-shoot it, but using transparencies is always a touchy subject due to poor-browser implementation.
