13,965 PointsCan't get overlay above image?
Hey guys,
I need to add an overlay when I have over my image.
I need to do this WITHOUT a background-image. I know it's easier to do it that way but I need to be able to do it with a regular image tag.
Why in this example does Z-index not work?
And if something could get a working example of when you hover over the image the image opacity lowers with the text remaining visible on top so you can see it clearly!
Much appreciated guys!
Joe

that's awesome! Is CSS3 the only way to do it?
Btw, how long you been coding? I think you helped me out last time so thanks a lot!

I've been learning about 14 months now so you must be learning a lot because I spend everyday on here!
