Transparent Content in Webbrowser

Question

My task is to show HTML content with half-transparent elements in WPF app. Transparency should go through Webbrowser and window. Webbrowser should not be half-transparent itself. So i need a HTML content, and i need to see desktop through it.

Is there any way to do something like that?

Thank you.

P.S.: Sorry for my English.

Awesomium and Awesomium.NET is an HTML UI Engine that supports just that.

Check the WPF WebControl. You can set WebControl.IsTransparent to true, and load some content with say body { background-color: transparent; } (you can even specify a custom CSS to be applied to all loaded pages, using WebSession).
