The CSS 2.1 Spec doesn't say how high a value can get: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#value-def-integer but I've personally used 9999 before with no side effects. That said, you should carefully consider _why_ you need a value that high, when a z-index of 1 on an absolutely positioned element is enough for it to sit on top of all other elements (not including browser chrome/form elements and multimedia elements--which are another story entirely :). ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
