Biggest z-index but still "transparent"?

Question

Hello

Is there a way to click through element, even if it's on top of the others. I have a link under one div, and the div must be where it is, but link should of course be clickable.

Solutions? Even jQuery is okay, if impossible with CSS.

EDIT: I cannot add link higher, because the div here is a kind of overlay/glare.

Answer 1

The only solution that will not result in hacking until the end of time is to either promote the link to a higher z-index or hide the div. Trying to track coordinates feels like an impossible solution.

Is there a reason you cannot promote the links to a higher stack index?

Answer 2

With some Javascript you can add another a element with a higher z-index and absolutely position it over the location of the original link.

Answer 3

I've done this kind of thing before transmitting mouse coordinates with clicks and determining what was under the div, then sending a click to that element. But that was with only a few clickable items. I wouldn't want to do that for a complicated arrangement.

Answer 4

add this css rule

a{ z-index: (greater than top most div); }
