Transparent Backgrounds with ASP.NET 2.0 Menu Control

Hi all...

Having a few probs getting the new ASP.NET 2.0 server Menu control to render a transparent background for sub-menus in IE 6.0.

I am using the control in dynamic mode, having linked it to my sitemap.

In the property window for the Menu control I can select the 'DynamicMenuStyle' (which sets the style on sub-menus) and set the BackColor property to Transparent.

This works fine in Netscape 7.x but will not render a transparent div in IE 6.0. I have tried creating a CSS style with various attributes (

.SubMenu{

filter:alpha(opacity=0);
background-color:Transparent;
opacity:0;

}

) and setting the CssClass property of the menu control accordingly but this also fails to work with IE.

Any suggestions anyone?
