How do I keep a background of a table 80% opaque and keep the pictures in it 100% opaque?

I'm designing my website using html codes and I'm having trouble manipulating the pictures in a table to be fully opaque(not transparent) while the table itself is transparent. Can you guys help me? I have a picture background. I also have a few tables and i made the tables 80% opaque so that the picture in the background can be seen, however when i add an image in the tables, its also 80% opaque (along with the table its in). I want to change it so that the table stays tranparent and the images i put in it are fully opaque.

  1. If you have Adobe Photoshop you can just change it there. Just use the special custom selection tool and draw around what you want to change. Then set up how opaque you want it.
  2. This is why you should never use tables for layout of web pages. If you know CSS, just add your opacity method to the styling of that cell.
