Edit: This ONLY occurs on Windows Webkit, does not occur on Macs
I am trying to set up a grid with fixed sized cells with a background image. When you hover, the background image and height of cell is changed/increased and overlays the row below it.
I tried a few ways to create this idea and came down to that a table with z-index applied to the row would work the best.
My issue, as the title says, is that I have this working in IE/FF, but for whatever reason webkit doesn't seem to care about the z-index on the row settings.
I should note that inside each grid is the jquery cycle plugin which I don't think affects anything, but I'm having some issues with pausing the cycle plugin in webkit as well.

CSS for the content area/background/etc
#girlcontent {
width:860px;
background-color:#000;
}
#girlspace {
background-color:#000;
padding-bottom:35px;
width:860px;
}
.girlbox {
background-image:url(../img/girlsbacka.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center;
height:264px;
width:194px;
margin:10px;
z-index:0;
position:absolute;
}
.girlbox:hover {
background-image:url(../img/girlsbackb.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center;
height:325px;
width:194px;
}
.girltable {
width:860px;
position:relative;
z-index:0;
}
.girlrow {
height:264px;
z-index:3;
position:relative;
}
.girlrow2 {
height:264px;
z-index:2;
position:relative;
}
Javascript for the area, there's more based upon the ID's
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#girlcycle').cycle({
fx: 'fade',
delay: -250
});
$('#girlcycle').cycle('pause');
$('#gctext').hide();
$('#girlcycle').hover(function() {
$('#girlcycle').cycle('resume', true);
$('#gctext').show();
});
$('#girlcycle').mouseleave(function() {
$('#girlcycle').cycle('pause');
$('#gctext').hide();
});
If anyone has any idea why this wouldn't work in webkit, I'd be grateful for any help that you can offer!
