How do I set a specific section of a page (div section?) to be on top of another section? I tried adding a z-index on the CSS file but it's not working. Or maybe I'm adjusting the wrong CSS file. In the end, I am confronted with:
--- which CSS file do I adjust? (I'm using Firebug but now I'm not sure if I'm using it correctly
--- what exact code adjustments do I need to do?
This is a sample page: http://www.criminal-lawyers.com.au/offences/aggravated-assault. The testimonial box to the lower right part of the page gets covered by the brown area when you scroll down. The goal is to put it on top so it's not covered whenever you scroll down (I know I should better position it "absolute" instead, but that's not the goal).
Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!
Finally had it solved! Many thanks to all your comments below. Although some answers did not exactly solve the problem, there were concepts behind them that really helped.
You need to set z-index:21 on the div with id it_widget_content-11-background-wrapper which is the main container of the sidebar widget. That should solve the issue.
it's pretty simple, to this widget-background-wrapper sidebar-widget-2 add z-index:9999. sorry i would rather comment this, but reputation < 50.
Remove position:fixed on the classes
CSS file - wp-content/themes/Criminal-Lawyers-it/style.css
sidebar-widget-1
and
sidebar-widget-2
They will remain in place.
Just realised it may not be exactly how you want it to look :) However, even with correct z-index, it may look weird having them overlap the footer...

I know this has been asked many times, and I have been searching for the answer in a lot of places but I can't seem to fix my code. Thank you for reading this because I'm going crazy here! First I had a different z-index problem with safari, than another with explorer, but now the z-index problem I'm having with mozila I can't fix in any way. I code in chrome, where it seems to work perfectly (for me it seems at least!)
I believe now it works more or less fine in most browsers but not on mozila. The idea of the page is to make (only with CSS because that's the only language supported by the website) a flipping book of several pages. I see some examples around of CSS only flipping cards (only one page), but not a book of more than one page. So I essentially overlap several "cards", in order to give this effect. You can see the demo from codepen here: pkrein/pen/qBOewem
Btw I do know this code is not as clean as it could be, but that's the way I figured to make a fuction like that works only with CSS, and I hope it will make sense for you.
Ok, so the matter is, the content inside the book pages is not "scrollable" on firefox. I guess this is indeed a z-index problem, because when I move any page outside the book, that is, from behind the rest of the content, it scrolls fine.
Let me know if I can give any more info that could help you understand my issue!
I figured a possible solution for this. It's not quite the solution for the problem itself but it's something that can make what I want to do work.
The problem was: (what I had to remove in order to make it work):
(1) The div #content-holder holding all the text inside the flap
(2) The div .preparation-text inside the .preparation (that's the text I want to scroll). That was a scrolling div (.preparation) inside a non-scrolling div (.preparation-text). I always add a scrolling div inside a non-scrolling div in order to hide the scrollbar, by adding a high padding-right to the inside div. I know I can use code to hide the scrollbar but it do not work in all browsers.
How I fixed:
(1) I just removed the #content-holedr divs, since it was not strictly necessary.
(2) I removed the .preparation-text and transformed .preparation into a scrolling div. Then I just covered the scrollbar with an image of the same size and colors as the background (a print of the layout).
I'm clueless how to get the scrollbar display below the active box - list item.
After searching I have found that the z-index should work on element positioned other than static. But still I'm still unable to produce the desired effect.
This is just one part of my problem, I believe if I understand the solution to this one, I can also fix another similar problem.
Somehow the active box is displayed on top of the scrollbar, but not the scrollbar's handle.
Here's the JsFiddle. Should be quite easy to notice my problem.
The desired effect is that the scrollbar and everything related to it (handle) is displayed below the active(longer, red) box.
Sorry, don't really see a way to accompany this problem with code inside the post or how to make the JsFiddle with less code.
I think you'll have to apply a z-index to the .scrollbar element itself, rather than its child .scroller. Add these styles to your definition of it:
.scrollbar {
z-index:-1;
position:relative;
}
And you should get (what I hope is) your desired behaviour. Here's an updated JSFiddle for you to see what this achieves. If this isn't what you were looking for, feel free to let me know and I'll be happy to help further. Good luck!
i've a little bit trouble to fix one thing, may you could help me out with it?
I try to make Chrome/Firefox works with a Logo sliding problem. You can see here the first pci is how does it looks like in win with chrome or firefox. IE looks normal like the second pic.
What did i wrong in the code? many thanks in advance.

I can't tell you unless I see the CSS. Post the css on something like pastbin.com or if it isn't real long then add it to your question and then you are likely to get some answers, but I can't tell you what is wrong with your CSS from a picture of the results. Too many possibilities.
Now I'm wishing I had asked for a demonstration instead. Am I correct in thinking that the text is part of a horizontal menu and the logo is completely separate and not contained by the text container at all? If this is the case and the image looks and behaves like you want then perhaps it is the menu that needs tweaking to get it to match up correctly. At first I was thinking this was something like a div containing text and an image or having an image as a background.
If you could go ahead and post a link to a page or a pastebin or something that has the html and the css for the menu and the logo together then I'll try it out myself and see if I can find the solution. Someone else may already see it, but I'm still not seeing the clear picture of your situation or a resolution to your problem yet.
It's quite early and so I'm probably missing something apparent here but I'd like to ask the community for some quick help. When you visit the demo page and hover over the slider, you'll see that the next and previous buttons appear as they should. Though the images have a "fold" effect on the left & right side and I'm trying to figure out why they're not showing.
I've toyed around with the z-index but can't figure it out. May someone please help with what should be a quick fix?
Thanks!
You have set overflow : hidden on your
<div class="pix_diapo diapostarted">
Since your folds are outside of the containing element, it hides it.
Just remove it, and it will work.
Hi
I have this really strange error....
I have two elements: paragraph and a link with an image inside of it.
Paragraph overlaps the link this results in that the link becomes ineffective...
How fix this?
Thanks in advance ;)
EDIT: Instead I will give you a link to mi site : http://e-skaitykla.lt/ . Try the posts images are the links and I can press them only in Opera.
FIX: There was misunderstanding in positioning types. P was set to have relative positioning. When I added the same thing to A tag all fixed
Thanks everybody who tried to help ;)
Absent actual code, I'd guess that you're either positioning the paragraph and the link absolutely or you're floating stuff inside the paragraph and the browser isn't correctly calculating the dimensions of the elements. Strip off any CSS and add declarations back one at a time to debug.
