It is not specific to Chrome / WebKit. > As you can see, the green #header has a z-index of 2, while the ol containing > the Items has a z-index of 0. > > I think that the Items should be beneath both the category text, and the > green > block (ie not currently visible). however, they are, in fact on top of > everything. > > Why? And how do I fix it? Those list items are part of the stacking context generated for and by #header. Then given that the parent ol doesn't have any stacking level on its own, the 'Items' are painted on top of 'Category'. To put them behind 'category', give them a negative z-index (-1). If you want them behind the green box, omit the z-index on the green box.
