Default Has anybody successfully used opacity in Internet Explorer?

Tried and tried to use the opacity function in CSS to work in Internet Explorer to highlight 'hover'. Could not get it to work. Worked fine in firefox, but nada, in IE 6, 7 and 8. Is it possible to get it to work consistently in Internet Explorer at all?

I've made opacity work, but i've had to resort to using .png images instead to highlight hover.

I'm not sure what you mean by "highlight hover", but opacity works fine in IE as long as you do it the Microsoft way.

For IE8, you can use the more correct

HTML Code:
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=50)"; 
(Where opacity is a %.)

And for IEs 6-8 (5-8??), you can use

HTML Code:
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
(Validators will complain at this point, but no browser will.)
