changing opacity of certain items

I have created a column/box in html and there are certain images in it. I want to reduce the opacity of the column and images to be displayed at full opacity. But when I reduce the opacity of the box, it reduces the opacity of images as well. How can this issue be solved.

In this code it reduces the opacity of text and images as well. What can be done to display images at full opacity?

CodePudding user response:

For a working solution, you will have to wrap any text nodes inside your container element, because CSS does not allow to select text nodes.

Also, your current HTML is invalid; p cannot be a child of h2.

Once that is done, this would work:

.container>*:not(img) {
  opacity: 0.2;
}
<div >

</div>

This is basically the same answer to the same question as this: Apply blur effect to parent container only

div{
  color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
}

Instead of using the opacity property, use color: rgba(). There are four arguments or values. The first are rgb values and the fourth is opacity.
