I am reading about opacity and they give this example:
background: rgb(255, 255, 255); background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6);
What is the point in having the background color repeated twice, with one with opacity? If I take out background: rgb(255, 255, 255); nothing changes.
Thanks in advance for your help.
It’s used as a fallback for browsers that don’t support rgba.
Normally it would look something like this:
background: white; /* < IE9 */ background: rgba(255,255,255,0.6);
Thanks so much everyone!
