I have little experience manipulating the dom other than using $( to
get/set style elements so direct advice and a link for education would
be appreciated.
Overall, the problem I have is a bunch of stacked divs with different
z-indexes. Sometimes the user will want to move a dive to the front.
This is not a problem, but I worry that with the page open for 6 - hours
(all functions are performed with AJAX) my z-index number will grow too
large.
So, what I would like to do is decrement the z-index of all the divs
involved when incrementing the one I am bringing to the front. I don't
want to decrement the z-index of all the divs.
I don't want to decrement the ones that are currently display="none" nor
the ones that stay visible all the time, nor divs that are children of
the stacked divs.
The stacked divs are all children of <body>, but so are some that should
not be affected. If it would make the job easier, I could move all the
stacked divs into a container div.
So, how to walk though all the stacked divs to change their z-index, if
currently being displayed ?
If prototype does not offer assistance (but I can't imagine that), let
me know and I will post in a .js group.
