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!

At first, it looks simple, and at the end of scroll event, a margin (or padding) will be applied at the top.
This is useful when there is a sticky element at the top. Then when a link is clicked and scroll down to somewhere on the page, it's nice to have this element "skipped" by the scrolling.
This article explains it pretty well: https://css-tricks.com/fixed-headers-and-jump-links-the-solution-is-scroll-margin-top/
I could make it work on really simple examples, and that works. However, I am trying to make this work on a normal website, and I can't. I think there is something not clear for me (or in general?) about how it works.
Please have a look here: https://meowapps.com/media-cleaner/tutorial/#Media_Library_Scan
When a link is clicked on the right, it scrolls but the scroll-padding-top is completely ignored. I have tried many techniques, moving the CSS property in many different places in the code, but that doesn't do anything.
Do you see what's wrong? Ideally, it would be great to find real the cause and maybe have an explanation why it doesn't work in this case and describes what's that case actually is.
Thanks a lot :)
scroll-margin is not useful if scroll behavior is controlled by JS
Looking at your page source, I found easy-table-of-contents WordPress plugin, which relies on smooth-scroll jQuery script. Also, I don't see scroll-behavior: smooth; in your body either (see this MDN page for reference).
It looks to me that your anchor link is not controlled by CSS but by JavaScript. And, as you'd know, when something is controlled by JavaScript, any relevant style declaration via CSS might be ignored.
What to do?
I honestly don't know. Perhaps you could replace the table of contents plugin with something that gives you a finer control. Perhaps you could refactor the said plugin yourself. In any case, should you need to keep the jQuery dependence and a particular WP plugin, you might have a tough luck for this fix.
I got your point, sorry for a long answer but I am sure this will clear your doubt with the output.
scroll-margin-top and scroll-padding-top define the amount of space to be given from within the element or from outside the element whenever a scroll event occurs.
Sometimes we see some text gets cut from the viewport such that it's half visible.
To avoid that kind of thing scroll-margin-top is helpful.
when no scroll event happens:
when scroll event happens but with scroll-padding-top:20px;
see an example from MDN Web Docs
Now applying this logic to your link example
When we click on the link it takes us to the specified div,
But when the scroll-padding-top is applied the output looks like this it gets stuck to the top of the viewport, even if we specify a certain margin with CSS the output is the same because the padding is applied from within the element:
When we apply scroll-margin-top we get the desired output on the link click event or scroll event:
a{
font-size:30px;
text-transform:capitalize;
}
#down{
scroll-margin-top:30px;
background-color:royalblue;
height:100px;
width:50%;
}
<center>
down
<section style="height:1000px;"></section>
<div id="down"></div>
<section style="height:1000px;"></section>
</center>
See Output
Correct me if I am wrong anywhere.
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).
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 am having trouble getting the facebook pop out dialog to be on top of my nav bar and slideshow here:
http://d14599.u62.c14.ixinstant.com
I have search for several hours and all the solutions have not seemed to work. Here is a list of what I have checked:
-overflow:hidden on other page elements causes problems. I looked into this but my nav bar does not have this property.
-z- index only works for positioned elements. I made sure my elements were positioned relative or absolute.
-I tried directly styling the js created facebook elements using things like
.fb_iframe_widget{
display:block !important;
z-index:9999 !important;
}
I'm not that good with CSS but have never been stuck this long on one single issue.
I am assuming the issue actually is with something I have done wrong elsewhere on the page, like the navbar itself, but I cannot see what it is. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
I searched lot of things and tried it too but no solutions worked for me. I found one quick fix to solve facebook like dialogbox overlap issue here and it worked for me.
Hope it could save others time, Cheers!
It doesn't really solve the issue, but what I have done is to hide the comment box. For this case it was acceptable. In the css file I added:
.fb_edge_widget_with_comment span.fb_edge_comment_widget {
display:none;
}
What worked for me was to set the z-index for the element that holds the Facebook like button to be higher than the element the comment box was shown behind.
Here you can see what I'm trying to do: http://jsfiddle.net/smogg/QFa4J/2/embedded/result/
I was trying to achieve this look so hard, and right now this code may be really confusing. If you have some tips which may clarify that, please tell me. It is all made by trial and error.
Anyway, this looks good. The only problem is my text inside .article is not selectable. Borders inside .article:before cause this problem. How can I solve this? Or maybe I should take some different steps to achieve this look (right now, with my solution I have to define height of articles which is problematic).
#edit:
I forgot about this. I can't use z-index cause my #mainhas shadow on it (which is not included in jsFiddle to clarify code) and then shadow shows on top of border. If I use borders without :before then my #main gets wider, which is not what I want.
There are cleaner and easier ways to do this. Enjoy!
