In Dreamweaver (or HTML), Is it possible to set an opacity to a text BG Color...?

I have an image I want to be under my text, but it's hard to read the text on top of it. If I set a Background color to my text (black), it completely blacks out the picture below wherever the text crosses it - Is it possible to set an opacity for that specific BG color?

I already tried working with the opacity in the CSS properties panel, but that changed the text opacity itself, I just want to affect the background color behind the text
