Help setting image in background

[Xaqte]

I've got an image in a table that needs to be in the background so when the image is moved, it moves behind the table. I know this sounds a little confusing, so here is an example link:

I've fought with this alot, and I'm just shooting blanks.
Any thoughts/experience would be greatly appreciated!

You'd need to set the z-index property of the image lower than that of the table (the 'z' index is the imaginary third dimension that controls which elements appear in front of what - the lower the z-index the further 'back' in your screen that element is)

Problem being though, if you're dragging the image around and drag it 'behind' the table, then the table will have the focus, not the image and you won't be able to drag it.

That makes sense... so I guess that I would need to reset the focus somehow with javascript, huh? I'm looking to have a simple design similar to Google Maps, but with just one image.
