In the template for 1.5 it was an easy matter to set the breadcrumb background to transparent. Just type "transparent" in the color code field and save.
In the Joomla 1.7 version, a "handy" color picker jumps up when you get to the field and only allow selection of a colour in the spectrum.
If I type in "transparent" and click save, a colour code replaces my typing before the page is saved. So some hex colour code is always saved.
Is there a way to save a transparent value please?
