set transparent menu over background image

this is probably obvious, but i found it useful for those themes that look nice with a semi-transparent header sitting over the top of an image.

I think ill do this as an external example, as its easier to do it full page.

set-transparent-menu-over-background-image.html

Update: Somehow i found this example page on a backup. So here it is.

HTML

<div class="banner-top"></div>

<div class="header-wrap">
	<div class="row">
		<div class="large-4 columns">
			<div class="site-branding">
				<div class="site-title">
					<a href="#" rel="home">Test Themes</a>
				</div>
				<div class="site-description">
					Just another .. site
				</div>
			</div>
			<!-- .site-branding -->
		</div>
		<div class="large-8 columns">
			<nav id="site-navigation" class="main-navigation">
			<button class="menu-toggle" aria-controls="primary-menu" aria-expanded="false">Primary Menu</button>
			<div class="menu-menu-1-container">
				<ul id="primary-menu" class="menu nav-menu" aria-expanded="false">
					<li id="menu-item-9" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom current-menu-item current_page_item menu-item-home menu-item-9"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
					<li id="menu-item-10" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-has-children menu-item-10"><a href="#">About</a>
					<ul class="sub-menu">
						<li id="menu-item-11" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-11"><a href="#">About</a></li>
					</ul>
					</li>
				</ul>
			</div>
			</nav>
			<!-- #site-navigation -->

	</div>
</div>
