CSS - Iframes Z-index And Pdf Documents
Ok, first post, difficult problem, so far I've researched all up about 8 or 9 hours looking for a solution.
The concept is for an office intranet. We send many pieces of standard correspondence from our office, and have decided to implement a menu system that allows easy access to view sample notices. The problem is, the sample notices are all in PDF format. I have created a basic expandable java menu, however I seem to be having trouble getting it to cross iframes. I have no idea what section to post this in, as I'm not too sure what's causing the problem. That problem being, while the z-index is taken into account initially, as soon as I load a pdf document into the browser, The menu will dissapear behind the sample notice. I'm quite the novice so please go easy if it turns out I'm a moron. Code snippets as follows. CSS. Code: <style type="text/css"> #floatframe {position:absolute; left: 0px; top: 05px; width: 399px; height: 999px; z-index: 100; } </style> <style type="text/css"> #mainFrame {position:absolute; left: 133px; top: 05px; width: 130%; height: 100%; z-index; 1; } </style> and the HTML Code: <div id="floatframe"> <iframe id="menu" name="menu" src="menu.html" scrolling="no" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" background-color="transparent"> [Content for browsers that don't support iframes goes here] </iframe> </div> <div id="mainFrame"> <iframe id="right" name="right" src="menu.html" scrolling="yes" width="68%" height="100%" frameborder="0"> [Content for browsers that don't support iframes goes here] </iframe> </div> Am i doomed to ponder this problem forever? Or is there a simple way to ensure the navigation iframe is displayed on top of the PDF content loaded in the content iframe? Similar Tutorialsright now i have a page that has an iFrame and three tabs, when you click on each tab, it loads a different page into the iFrame. this is done as the data on the rest of the page is randomly generated via PHP.... so i cant have a refresh on the entire page... is there a way to hide all three sections of info the tab calls up in a "display:none" div? and then bring it up upon the tab being clicked? thanks. 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? 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 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> 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? 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? [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? 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. 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. 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. 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 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 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. Hi folks I'm having a problem displaying a CSS navigation menu within a website in IE8. It displays OK in Firefox and Chrome, but as I say, not in IE8. I haven't tried any other versions of IE. The story is that I got the code from mycssmenu.com, and have tweaked it here and there to make it appear as desired. I can't remember if I touched the z-index values or not at that time. I understand that the problem lies with IE's interpretation of z-index and I have tried to fix this problem by randomly changing the z-index values, but that didn't get me anywhere. I accept that my ignorance CSS code is ultimately to blame. The code in question is as follows: Code: <style type="text/css"> .qmmc .qmdivider{display:block;font-size:1px;border-width:0px;border-style: solid;position:relative;z-index:1;}.qmmc .qmdividery{float:left;width:0px;} .qmmc .qmtitle{display:block;cursor:default;white-space:nowrap;position: relative;z-index:1;}.qmclear {font-size:1px;height :0px;width:0px;clear:left;line-height:0px;display:block;float:none !important;} .qmmc {position:relative;right:-473px;zoom:1;z-index:10;}.qmmc a, .qmmc li {float:left;display: block;white-space:nowrap;position:relative;z-index: 1;}.qmmc div a, .qmmc ul a, .qmmc ul li {float:none;} .qmsh div a {float:left;}.qmmc div{visibility:hidden;position:absolute;} .qmmc li {z-index:auto;}.qmmc ul {left:-10000px;position:absolute;z-index:10;} .qmmc, .qmmc ul {list-style:none;padding:0px;margin: 0px;}.qmmc li a {float:none}.qmmc li:hover>ul{left:auto ;}#qm0 ul {top:100%;}#qm0 ul li:hover> ul{top:0px;left:100%;} #qm0 { margin:0px; background-color:#FFFFFF; border-width:1px 0px; border-style:solid; border-color:#FFFFFF; } #qm0 a { padding:3px 10px 3px 8px; background-color:transparent; color:#444444; font-family:Arial; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; border-width:0px 0px 0px 1px; border-style:solid; border-color:#BABABA; } #qm0 a:hover { background-color:#EFF4FA; color:#000000; text-decoration:underline; } #qm0 .qmparent { background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:92% 50%; } body #qm0 .qmactive, body #qm0 .qmactive:hover { background-color:#EFF4FA; background-image:url("images/item_bg.gif"); color:#000000; text-decoration:underline; } #qm0 div, #qm0 ul { padding:5px; background-color:#FFFFFF; border-width:1px; border-style:solid; border-color:#333333; } #qm0 div a, #qm0 ul a { padding:3px 20px 3px 5px; color:#333333; font-size:11px; border-width:0px 0px 0px 4px; border-style:solid; border-color:#FFFFFF; } #qm0 div a:hover, #qm0 ul a:hover { text-decoration:none; border-color:#75B1C2; } body #qm0 div .qmactive, body #qm0 div .qmactive:hover { text-decoration:underline; border-color:#75B1C2; } </style> Can anyone see where the issue lies? Thanks very much. 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? i really need some help!!! i can work out how to solve this problem. I know z-index only works with absolute positioned elements. however i need it to work a relative element. so i decided to make that element absolute and then put it inside a relative <div> wrapper. problem that came about: 1, the z-index still doesnt work. that element doesnt show up over lower values of z-index which are on the page. these other elements are not in the div wrapper. 2, the div wrapper does not wrap around an absolute position element. it just shrinks down. any help>> I seem to be having problems with a drop-down menu being overlayed with a flash movie in IE 7. Now I understand there's a z-index bug with IE7 and a position attribute needs to added to the relevant container element. eg. position: relative; But even though I do this I still seem to get the same problem in IE7. Are there any suggestions? |
