Mike I have multiple document icons (images) on my page placed using absolute positioning <div> over a large background image. On hover over those document images a text box pops up with more information and links. However, if my text box overlaps with other document icon on the page, the icon obscures the link or text in the pop up balloon. I tried to use z-index, but that didn't work.. I would be grateful if someone could suggest a fix and or web page with info that could help me. best, Mitchell A On a site I'm trying to setup I have a header arrangement with a centrally placed image/logo (it's a png8). 1. It looks a bit decimated in IE6. Anyone know why? 2. The image is supposed to be absolute and on top but in fact the menu bar stays on top. All a problem in IE but not firefox. I'm obviously missing something basic! Help appreciated. Hi, I am trying to position a logo at the foot of http://www.root.lamtha2.co.uk/cssproblem/ If you look at the source it shows, <div id="footer" class="navTextBottom"> <br /> <!-- #BeginLibraryItem "/Library/bottom_nav_bar.lbi" --><a href="index.html">Home</a> | <a href="#">Terms & Conditions</a> | <a href="#">Links</a> | <a href="#">Contact Us</a><!-- #EndLibraryItem --><br /> <span class="copyrightText">Copyright Apex Verhicle Rentals 2006</span><br /> <div id="lamtha2logo"><a href="http://www.lamtha2.com" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Lamtha2logo','','index_images/designed_by_l2_on.jpg',1)"><img src="index_images/designed_by_l2_off.jpg" alt="Lamtha2 Web Design" name="Lamtha2logo" width="89" height="29" border="0" id="Lamtha2logo" /></a> </div> <!-- end lamtha2logo --> </div> <!-- end footer --> Here is the css #footer { width:760px; font-size:12px; background-image: url(index_images/footer.gif); text-align: center; background-repeat: no-repeat; z-index: -2; } #lamtha2logo { height: 29px; width: 89px; background-repeat: no-repeat; z-index: 2; float: left; padding-left: 10px; margin-bottom: -35px; } Can anyone help me resolve why div #lamtha2logo is beneath div #footer thanks Does IE not support z-index attributes? I set some z-indexes and it seems to have fixed my issues in firefox, but not in IE. I am making a list of arrangements, and want a div containing further info to pop up, when you click the arrangement. To make sure the info-box is on top of the other DIVs, i have set z-index to 1. But i have a couple of scripts on the page, and they are allways places on top. I there a way to go around this? + Is it possible with a few simple changes to this script: Code: <script type="text/javascript"><!--
function showHide(boxName) {
theBox = document.getElementById(boxName);
if (theBox.className == "boxVisible") {
theBox.className = "boxHidden";
} else {
theBox.className = "boxVisible";
}
}
//-->
</script>
<body>
<a href="news" onclick="showHide('news'); return false;">News</a>
</body>
So the target changes back, when the link is inactive. I've tried this: Code: <body> <a href="news" onmouseover="showHide('news'); return false;">News</a> </body>
But then i have to pass the link again, to close the window again. Hi everyone, I'm currently busy on a website which is viewable here The problem is the 'Top' image on the right side. It's supposed to be below the #shadow div (look at my source code) I tried changing the z-indexes to different levels but the top div keeps staying on top. If I turn it into a negative z-index, the mouseover doesn't work anymore.. Hope anyone can help Wouter I'm wanting to put three items together with different z-indexes. The first div contains another div and a paragraph, all are positioned absolutely. I want the 2nd div to be higher than the p. The html is as follows: Code: <div id="sticker"> <div></div> <p>Text</p> The css is as follows: Code:
div#sticker {width:146px; height:140px; background:url("stickerbase.png") no-repeat top left; position:absolute; top:20px; left:20px; z-index:10;}
div#sticker div {width:115px; height:67px; background:url("stickerflap.png") no-repeat top left; z-index:20;}
div#sticker p {position:absolute; top:40px; left:20px; z-index:15; background-color:#06c;}
An example is at www.wattersisere.co.uk/devshed I want the text with the blue background to be behind the flap of the sticker! I even tried it out with an online z-index checker and couldn't get their code to do it. Thanks, Watters I worked it out, I had missed the position:absolute off the 2nd div. Having an issue with a drop down menu in firefox. I have a nav bar with drop down menus. Just below that is an embedded video. Everything works fine except for the drop down menu is behind the video on firefox. Looks fine in IE. I adjusted the z-index properties to make sure that the nav bar sits on top, but it still sits behind. ??? Is it a glitch of some sort? hi, i've been reading extensively about the z-index issue that IE 7 suffers from (when using the "position" property) but i cannot for the life of me fix my problem. Basically i have a #menu that is positioned relative to a #wrapper. The dropdown menu works fine in all browsers except that in IE 7, the grey shadow that should appear behind the dropdown menu itself appears on top of the actual dropdown menu. If you view the same page using Firefox, the dropdown menu appears above the grey shadow as it should do. This is the EXACT behaviour i need. I need the dropdown menu and its shadow to appear above the "#content .box" below it, but i also need the shadow to appear behind the dropdown menu. I just need to replicate this exact behaviour you see in Firefox in IE 7. I need to keep the IE7 compatibility mode and the DOCTYPE as they are otherwise the other styles on my site will be affected. Please find the attached folder with all necessary code contained in it. Ignore the jquery.js file as its merely used for effects and is not causing the issue. BTW: its essential that the #menu is positioned relative to the #wrapper as i want it to appear further down in the HTML code for SEO purposes. Thanks in advance I have an object on my page with the following settings: Code:
#myEmail {
position:absolute;
left:400px;
top:50px;
z-index:2;
display:none;
}
and i have a video player in my form that looks like this: Code:
<object id="Player" height="400" style="border:solid 1px black; z-index:1;" width="500" classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6">
<param name="URL" value="<% =GetPlayerUrl() %>" />
<param name="autoPlay" value="true" />
</object>
Problem is, when the video starts to play, it moves to the top layer. What am i doing wrong? Hi all, I've got a little request. Does anybody know how I could solve this issue: I want to have a menu hover on the left, and a menu hover at the top, while visitors can move the google map around in the background. I do this by setting my map div to z-index: -1, and it works good. Except it won't let people click on the map and move it around, even though there isn't a div ontop of it. http://pw.mmogm.com/0.0.5/frame.html The only other way I can think of it set the menu's to z-index: 1, but that would cause them to lag, and they're position would be fixed so when I "toggle" the menu, the top menu won't slide left. It's much nicer the first way, besides the clicking problem. http://pw.mmogm.com/0.0.5/frame2.html I greatly greatly any advice you might be able to shed on this issue. Thanks in advance if you can [sorry for any duplication... I just submitted this to the HTML list but suddenly realized it's really a CSS problem] I have a couple web pages that include relatively long pop-up "help" fields... implemented with the display and index style elements. With Netscape or Safari they look fine, but with IE or Opera, some underlying elements "bleed through"; that is, some elements from a div with a lower z-index, which should be behind, seem to float off the rear document and appear in front of the front document. All of the problem elements seem to be within forms and (probably more importantly) they all seem to be in a DIV other than the DIV containing the pop up. That is each structure looks something like: <div> <div> ... the pop up </div> <div> the rest of this section </div> </div> <div> ... some more stuff </div> the proplems are in the area in which the pop up overlaps later divisons. (not all items so conflict) ... any ideas? An old site, http://www.naausa.org, doesn't work properly in IE7 as the hover links don't go over the changing image. It seems to be because of the IE bug: http://therealcrisp.xs4all.nl/meuk/IE-zindexbug.html The site and code is ugly (inline CSS, tables, etc.), but I don't want to reinvent the wheel; I just want to solve the problem and get it over with. I've tried several things with no luck. Can anyone take a gander at the source code and give me a hint? Thanks, Jeremy I am not sure why this is not working but I am trying to nest a div and overlay them. Code:
<style>
.txtImg {
posistion: relative;
z-index: 99;
height: 72px;
width: 100%;
background: url(../../images/roycity-gpl-01.png) no-repeat left;
}
.logo {
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
height: 72px;
width: 100%;
background: no-repeat right;
}
</style>
<div id="txt" class="txtImg" align="left">
<div id="bg-img" class="logo" align="right"></div>
</div>
I have two elements. One has a z-index of 9999 and the other has 9000. Both elements are positioned. It is a modal popup window. When I open it, the element with a poistion of 9000 is on top of the one with 9999. I even checked to confirm that the z-index properties were the same once the popup completed. What could cause this? I'm aware of what z-index does and that it can only work on positioned elements. My question is this: for z-index to work properly does a position also need to be set for the element that will be below the element with a higher z-index? Hi everyone. I have a site that has a flash dropdown navigation on it. I have the navigation in a relatively positioned <div> tag so that I could absolutely position an <h2> tag "under" the navigation so that the dropdown navigation would go over the <h2> tag. When I play with the z-index is when I have the issues. In FF it works well in the example below but not in IE. Does anyone know what I can do to remedy this? Here's the markup ... Code: <div id="intwrap"> <div id="intflash"> <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="752" height="100" id="nav" align="middle"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" /> <param name="movie" value="f/nav.swf" /> <param name="loop" value="false" /> <param name="quality" value="best" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /> <embed src="f/nav.swf" loop="false" quality="best" wmode="transparent" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="752" height="100" name="nav" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /> </object> </div> <!-- end intflash --> <div id="pdname"> <h2>Product Name</h2> </div> <!-- end pdname --> </div> <!-- end intwrap --> and the css... Code:
/* -- interior page wrap -- */
#intwrap {
position: relative;
width: 752px;
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
/* -- interior flash navigation -- */
#intflash {
positin: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 752px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
z-index: 1000
/* -- detail page -- */
#pdname {
position: absolute;
top: 30px;
left: 0;
margin: 5px 0 0 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: left;
z-index: 0;
}
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I worked at it for quite some time without prevailing. Thanks! -Brian http://turkeybot.info/flash/play.php?id=121 When you go below the game eand hover where it says to, the instructions for the game come up. Problem is, the z-index I set for it isn't working, and it's letting the form below it override it. What's the problem? |
