Transparent Background during Focus

[isitus]

I need to have a Text control remain transparent during
focus.
I have overlayed this control over an image so the user
can type text over the image. As soon as the text control
has focus the background color covers the image. There is
an image behind the control that needs to show through.
Is there any way to do this?

Thanks

None that I'm aware of.
