z-index problem in IE6

I have been struggling with a z-index problem in IE6 for quite some time now. I require part of the 'header' portion in my website to open up (using jQuery), and cover a portion of the 'content' section which comes after it. The thing works like a charm on all the browsers I've tested it on (Firefox, Chrome, Opera), but IE6 instead pushe...

Z-Index: Divs still overlap in the wrong order (browserwide)

Hi, I can't select one of those dropdrown-links, although the #header div has a higher z-index than the rest.

What has bigger priority: opacity or z-index in browsers?

Hi, I'm coding a "popup window" in javascript and I've come across an interesting thing: http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/4761/error01cropped.png - the navy square under the popup window is visible even though I would expect it to be hidden. The popup was added after the square so it should be on the top. CSS opacity property of the na...

IE7 maddeningly displaying columns under a div instead of over it

If you view this page in IE7: http://65.60.10.2/~marionin/ , why are the light purple headers ("Spotlights", "Serendipity Projects", "Marion Institute Blog") hiding underneath the dark purple band? I have firebugged till my fingers hurt, but I can't figure it out. The column divs are written after the block div, so they should display o...

qTip with jQuery dialogs

I'm using qTip to show validation errors in a grid. The tooltip appears after a failed row save and doesn't disappear until the row is resaved or the changes are canceled. The problem with this is that opening a dialog while the tooltip is visible causes the tooltip to be rendered on top of the dialog. That is because the z-index is h...

I am tearing my hair out over this, I have a dropdown menu using CSS and jQuery (thanks to Soh Tanaka) and it works perfectly in Firefox, Safari, Google chrome and I.E. 8, but in IE 7 it will not drop down outside the 'Banner div'.

Why does animate not work for the first few 'selections' of my next button?

I'll just start right off the bat and say I'm fairly new to JQuery, so if you see some glaring issues with my code....let me know what I'm doing wrong! Either way, I've been working on a script to fade divs in and out using the z-index and animate. It "works" after about 2-3 clicks, but the first two clicks do not fade or animate as I ...

How to get z-index to play nice with the jQuery plugin Cycle

Take a look at the bottom right example on the jQuery Cycle Advanced Demos page. Notice how when it loops the gallery, the next image goes beneath the last, as opposed to others where the next image always covers the previous one? Well, at least in Firefox 3.6.3. I'm developing a custom animation with jQuery cycle that has the same pro...

How do I make my DIV ontop of a flash object inside an iFrame I don't control?

Annoyingly, the jquery ui's set a few css properties inline, making it impossible to override them in the stylesheet. I tried to override the values with jquery, but then they get changed back as soon as the control is interacted with. Does anyone know if any of the jquery ui control's initialisers/constructors have the ability to overr...
