Afloat is what you're looking for. This app has many different features for window management. The included user guide has all of the features. Including:
Transparency lets you see through a window.

Transparency or pagedown or down with or down with

You might be looking for SetAlphaValue or WindowShade X.
SetAlphaValue especially seems to have an option for "AlpahValue for windows with title", with which you might be able to render Firefox transparent just for the home page.
(Sorry, don't have a Mac to try this on)

If you're using Windows you can make applications transparent with Pitaschio. It's more of an on-the-fly setting, so you would just make the windows transparent when needed. Here's a Firefox tutorial I found on google: http://userlogos.org/book/export/html/12170

1Can you please elaborate, what do you mean by "so one can see everything that is behind" do you mean you want it transparent so the user can see the desktop? – Sandeep Bansal – 2011-03-31T16:06:00.347
1yes, exactly! or even better, all the windows that are behind firefox's window – Open the way – 2011-03-31T17:01:06.937
5Don't start Firefox, and then say you did. It will be fully transparent, and you'll see everything behind it. – Zano – 2011-05-23T14:20:06.017
3Why would you want to do that? – Tamara Wijsman – 2011-05-23T22:18:22.340
Don't you mean translucent? – Mateen Ulhaq – 2011-05-25T00:51:02.690
