Does anyone know a simple html code or css to dim a websites background for a video. if you remember, youtube did this for a little while where you click a button shaped like a light bulb then background fades but the video is still lit up. i want that html code or css.
preferably html

thanks

try this:

div#myDiv {
......
.......
......
opacity:0.5;
}

for example:
<script>
document.getElementById('myDiv').setProperty('opac ity',1);
</script>

Hope this will help u.
