Having trouble with div element not showing on top

kts · 10th August 12, 09:11 PM

I have a plugin I'm using that has a drop down from a <select>.
The z-index of the div that is dropping down is set to 1010 default.
The other element do not have a z-index set at all, yet this is being hidden.

Is there another property I should look into? I would like to have this show on top of all other elements as it will be closed.

Give 'The other element' a position: relative; and a z-index: 9999, and see if that makes it move to the top.

Without code I can't really tell what the problem is.

Hey thanks for the quick response... I have tried this it seems to be having the opposite effect.. weird.

I will try to get the code together, so many moving parts.

Put position:relative and z-index:xx on both elements, then just give the one you want on top the higher z-index.
