-moz-opacity is only required for browser versions prior to Mozilla 1.7. Firefox has supported the CSS3 opacity property since version 0.9 so you only really need to include -moz-opacity in your stylesheets if you're concerned with supporting those older browsers.

I just wonder why opacity in Opera (9.64 in my case) need to use "position: absolute;" to trigger?

At least they are not required in Firefox 3, IE7 & IE8

Hi there,

What are you saying position:absolute; is needed to trigger? I'm not exactly sure what you mean. The examples here don't ue any absolute positioning.
