> Relative positioning?
To clarify what I think Ade is describing, there's an unfortunate bug in
Internet Explorer that causes anything that's been given
"position:relative;" in it's style to receive a wierd sort of
"SUPER-Z-Index!" that basically is equivalent of like "always on top" in
Windows lingo. What this means is that you can't give anything explicit
relative position in Internet Explorer without also giving it in essence
a z-index value of "infinity". Since no z-index value will ever be
greater than infinity, neither will anything on the page ever appear in
front of that object, unless it too is both relative positioned (or in a
relative positioned container) and probably appears after it in the code.
I haven't fiddled with it a whole lot -- beyond being royally frustrated
by it -- but basically, best to avoid relative positioning things on the
page as much as possible, in spite of the fact that it's sometimes
necessary. Maybe MS will fix it in a patch -- likely they don't care.
