---- How do you 'fade in' a whole layer and contents?

yeah mozilla's opacity works *nearly* as well.

One thing to note though. If you are running a fairly fast setTimeout routine (and incrementing the fade with a small amount, but in rapid succession) then you will see much better performance on a Win System using IE (unsurprisingly) than using Mozilla.

ALso, on my 1.8 ghz , 1GB ram computer, using linux, it seemed that the mozilla on there was also rendering it rather sluggishly. When I run this same comp in windows, it can run the opacity routine well in mozilla/phoenix or IE.
And of course, using the fade-in is simply not very-standards compliant.

And yes, the filters only work on images, not divs. but its not too hard to make it appear that a div is whats being altered.

One wedding website i worked on works on either mozilla or IE . I'm not going to post it cuz thats bad right? Cna i make it my homepage at least? (cuz thats what I did) Going in and out of the links section on the left causes the routine to run. Beware, the ads geocities throws in make it a mess sometimes.
