Yes, that is possible, but unfortunately Netcape can't handle this.


What  you  do  is  that  you  make  your  own transparent color on the

paintbucket.  Then  you go to modify/movie/background color and choose

the color you just have made.


Netscape, however, will exchange that color to something else, that is

NOT  transparent.  At  least  this  was  true for the earlier versions

(4.x), I haven't tried this lately with the newest ones...
