z index

[artdog2]

Does z index only work when a div has absolute positioning?

No.

Ok so I have set up the page in question online at

http://www.pdp.cz/elc

I have set the div around the left "drop shadowed card" to have a -10 margin. The "logobar" div has a z of 0 and the left card has a z of 2. Why then is the leftcard div disappearing behind the logobar div? There is a graphic in the topbar div. Is it not possible to overlap the leftcard div on the logobar div if there is a graphic in the logobar div?

You'll need to make them position relative for the z-index to work.

Also, AFAIK, z-indexes only work among sibling elements - so you may have to move the leftcard div up a node level for it to be effective.

Ok that is sorted. Thanks for the help. I have uploaded a new file. Can anyone give me some help with the IE problems? It looks correct in Firfox but in IE there are obvious problems.
