[WSG] z-index with ie

2006-09-21 Thread Able Net Design



Hi,

I'm playing with z-index's for a site I am 
buildings. In FF there is not a problem the site looks exactly how I would 
expect it to look but when you view it in IE nothing is right.


div#header {background: #ff; height: 80px; position: static; z-index:1;}div#header img {position: relative; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 150px; 
height: 
150px; z-index: 2; float: right; bottom: 25px; 
right: 25px;}
I have been reading about an issue with 
position:relative and z-index with IE but 
can't seem to finda solution.

Any ideas?

Kind Regards,
Tristan

IE6 and z-index issues are enough to make
Fabio go bald.



IE6 looks not only at the z-index of bob
and sue but the z-index of their parents. Does that make sense?



If you want bob to sit on top of sue, Bobs
parent container needs to have a higher z-index than sues parents.



It becomes an ugly game of keeping up with
the Jones family.

when you come across a z-indexed element
that needs to sit on top of a select box, you better hope Bobs
grandparents are rich and famous because it takes a hell of a lot of
connections to fix this nightmare.



Hedger Wang has a solution http://www.last-child.com/hedger-wang-is-god-well-a-guru-at-least/

Or you could use the Yahoo User Interface
library. The container library handles this for you.
