Position the content div so that it is positioned relatively (this is
what it is by default, but the explicit style makes a HUGE difference).
Then , make the position of the HTML promobox to be "absolute" and then
top/left to zero. 


div#content {
        text-align:center; 
        margin-top: 4px;
        position: relative ;
}

div#content img{border: 1px solid #003366;}

div#content .promobox  {
Position: absolute ; 
top: 100px;
Left: 0px ;
border: solid 1px #000000;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
Z-index: 100 ;
}


..... See if that helps.

Subject: CSS layered div problem

I can't quite get a div to position itself over another div. What I'm
trying to create is a content div that has a big image in it. Then
placing a promo div box right on top of it...  the promo box will
contain html text. 

My problem is, one appears either above or below the other depending on
where I place it. I tried some floats, positions, nothing is working. 

Here's my content css:

div#content {text-align:center; margin-top: 4px;}

div#content img{border: 1px solid #003366;}

div#content .promobox  {
top: 100px;
border: solid 1px #000000;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
float: right;

}

And the html

<div id="content">
                  
         <img src="images/contentpic.jpg" alt="content" width="680">
           <div class="promobox">
           This is some promo text
           </div>
</div>

Thanks,
Will
