I have a set of ASP:Images in my project.When the mouse pointer mouses over a tab then the particular tab's image is shown. Till now its working well by keeping Visibility=true and style.visibility:hidden and on Mouse over event i am keep style.visibility:visible.
image is showing but its location is not in the correct position.I thought its all because of visibility true for remaining images.
can anyone suggest me to make visibility false .or to make images to be shown at particular location.
Thanks,
Rakesh.
try to use style
display:none
and
display:block
instead of visibility:hidden and visibility:visible
Maybe I am misunderstanding here, but this seems to be more of a css, javascript question than an asp/c# question. It would also be easier to formulate a useful answer if we had a bit of example code that clarified the question a little bit, but I suggest 2 possible solutions:
position these elements with absolute positioning based on the parent containers.
Add a visible wrapper div around the elements to keep the position the same.

Edit to reopen:
It seems to be difficult to position elements over a google map. Using z-index does not solve the problem which is described below: Google Maps will stay on top of some other elements even when using high z-indexes.
The question is:
Is it possible to have a div cover parts of a google map?
I have the following popup:
But when i move this popup up to appear over the map, it gets hidden:
How to force something to be the top most, always displayed object on screen?
I have tried setting the z-index on my CSS property sheet, but this did not work.
Is there some HTML/CSS property i can set so that the popup, which is a DIV, actually always sets on top of everything else?
z-index is not that simple friend. It doesn't actually matter if you put z-index:999999999999..... But it matters WHEN you gave it that z-index. Different dom-elements take precedence over each other as well.
I did one solution where I used jQuery to modify the elements css, and gave it the z-index only when I needed the element to be on top. That way we can be sure that the z-index of this item has been given last and the index will be noted. This one requires some action to be handled though, but in your case it seems to be possible.
Not sure if this works, but you could try giving the !important parameter too:
#desired_element { z-index: 99 !important; }
Edit: Adding a quote from the link for quick clarification:
First of all, z-index only works on positioned elements. If you try to set a z-index on an element with no position specified, it will do nothing. Secondly, z-index values can create stacking contexts, and now suddenly what seemed simple just got a lot more complicated.
Adding the z-index for the element via jQuery, gives the element different stacking context, and thus it tends to work. I do not recommend this, but try to keep the html and css in a such order that all elements are predictable.
The provided link is a must read. Stacking order etc. of html elements was something I was not aware as a newbie coder and that article cleared it for me pretty good.

Try setting position to absolute, ie.
#yourDiv{
position: absolute;
z-index: 10;
};
Are you using position: relative?
Try to set position: relative and then z-index because you want this div has a z-index in relation with other div.
By the way, your browser is important to check if it working or not. Neither IE or Firefox is a good one.
you should use position:fixed to make z-index values to apply to your div
Set the DIV's z-index to one larger than the other DIVs. You'll also need to make sure the DIV has a position other than static set on it, too.
CSS:
#someDiv {
z-index:9;
}

One form to do this is insert the panel that you want to expand inside a DIV setted as relative: let me show you:
<div style="position:relative">
<div style="position:absolute; z-index: 1000;">
your code
</div>
</div>
You use the first div to position the inner content in a specific area inside your page and the second absolute should be referred to the container (because is relative) The z-index in this case is referred also to container and if it higher that the container should be at top. You can put the style in a CSS class and change the size of the absolute div to expand it on hover or another action that you want to control.
I hope that this help
dropdowns always show up on top, only solution for this problem is to hide dropdowns when image is displayed (display:block or visibility:visibile) and show them when image hidden (display:none or visibility:hidden)
So I have a case of client-itus here. The client is whining and my boss is demanding that I add a logo underneath the Archives tab over the banner ad seen, which would break through the structure I've set up. We're two days from launch and I have a choice of either taking precious time away from other work to restructure the layout, or find a way to position that logo without having to futz with the divs. I understand HTML and basic CSS, so I thought I'd see if I could find a better solution before going about this the hard way. Thank you for all your help! The current page can be seen at ctdailydose.com/new
(Just for clarity, what I want to do is add big circular logo on the right that says "Scolari Engineering" without having to rewrite the CSS and change the header's entire structure.)
Just add your image (logo) at the end of the end of the achor in your menu-banner div and position:absolute right:0px top:0px for it in your css. Adjust the position as needed.
I tried searching for this on Google, but to no avail.
Can someone point me to a good resource that explains the rendering and visibility rules for CSS ? Or if it is very simple, can someone please write it down here ?
To give you an example, let's say that I have 2 large divs, DIV_LARGE1, DIV_LARGE2, that are not contained within each other and a small div, DIV_SMALL. When DIV_SMALL is defined within DIV_LARGE1, I can see that part of it which falls inside DIV_LARGE1, but the area that is shared with DIV_LARGE2 gets hidden beneath DIV_LARGE2. I am displaying DIV_SMALL (by setting its display:inline) after the page has rendered (on some click), so it should not matter that DIV_LARGE2 comes after DIV_LARGE1 in the HTML code.
What takes precedence over what ? Since my smaller div has position:relative and both the other divs (DIV_LARGE*) have position:absolute, I can infer that absolute positioning takes precedence over relative if the div is not defined inside it. But is this correct ? What are the precise rules ?
Phelios is correct, the issue you're running into is related to the z-index property.
Here's a great article from SmashingMag that explains it in detail: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/09/15/the-z-index-css-property-a-comprehensive-look/
For the tl;dr - positioned elements get stacked in the order they're placed in the html code, so your div_small inside the first large div is by default always going to be stacked "under" the second large div. You can fix this by setting the small div's z-index property in css.
The best way to illustrate this question is with...a Fiddle! Before you visit the fiddle, notice there is text behind the grayest element, which is on top of a light gray element that has a border.
There is a main wrapping div (root), and two wrapping divs inside (wrap1 and wrap2). The problem here is that I need the content of wrap2 (highlight) to be behind the content of wrap1 (text), but in front of the background of the root.
This, however, must not change:
The HTML, the elements and wraps should be left untouched. Excluding the order of wrap1 and wrap2 inside root.
The highlight div must keep the absolute positioning.
Styling highlight with background-color is not an option, the existence of highlight is a must.
PS: the italics reference the id's of <div>s in the fiddle example, for whomever was too lazy to visit it.
I was able to display the text in front of the highlight by adding a z-index to text. (Adding the z-index to wrap1 also works.) The trick is to remember that z-index doesn't apply to statically-positioned elements, so you need to give the same div position: relative.
#text {
position: relative;
z-index: 1000;
}
(Large z-index because I've been bitten by IE not respecting low values in the past. May or may not still be an issue. ;-)
z-index can be difficult to grasp. I think somebody already answered your question, but if you want to learn more how they work, this is a pretty comprehensive guide:
http://www.onextrapixel.com/2009/05/29/an-indepth-coverage-on-css-layers-z-index-relative-and-absolute-positioning/
And also, here is a link where you can try out different z-index and how they are affected by different position properties (the main reason for difficulty)

#wrap1{position:absolute;z-index:2;}
Good Day, I used position:absolute for many div's in my website. I have used nearly 35 - 40 divs with absolute property.
Now i have a issue with z-index say some divs get hides, I realize this is because of z-index problem. I never declared z-index in my css.
I need to track the z-index of each divs. Is there any programs or scripts to find the z-index of the div's in my website?
Thanks in Advance
You can use https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/60 for that.
Use the topography feature or the display z-index featur under "Information"
First, it sounds like really bad programming having nearly 40 divs all using position:absolute and z-index. I would strongly recommend that you change the code to something more "user friendly".
But in this case, I would use jQuery to track your DIVs.
create an array where you put the ID for each div in.
Then you can loop through it and compare z-index values.
Or loop through the divs using the $.()each function.
Readmore about jQuery each here: http://docs.jquery.com/Core/each
You can use a usual DOM recursive iteration to get to the id of the particular div you want and then display the z-index.
element = getFromDOM(your_div_id);
alert (element.style.zindex);
However, I would suggest you install Firebug in Firefox and view / alter the z-index of the div you want dynamically. Get Firebug here - http://getfirebug.com/
