Question

How do I make an html div tag to be on top of everything

User · Answer

For z-index 1000 to have an effect you need a non-static positioning scheme   Add position relative  to a rule selecting the element you want to be on top

You need to add position relative  to the menu  Z-index only works when you have a non static positioning scheme

Yes  in order for the z-index to work  you ll need to give the element a position  absolute or a position  relative property  But    pay attention to parents  You have to go up the nodes of the elements to check if at the level of the common parent the first descendants have a defined z-index  All other descendants can never be in the foreground if at the base there is a lower definite z-index  In this snippet example  div1-2-1 has a z-index of 1000 but is nevertheless under the div1-1-1 which has a z-index of 3  This is because div1-1 has a z-index greater than div1-2    x000D   x000D   div          div1     z-index  1    position  absolute    width  500px    height  300px    border  1px solid black      div1-1     z-index  2    position  absolute    left  230px    width  200px    height  200px    top  31px    background-color  indianred      div1-1-1     z-index  3    position  absolute    top  50px    width  100px    height  100px    background-color  burlywood      div1-2     z-index  1    position  absolute    width  200px    height  200px    left  80px    top  5px    background-color  red      div1-2-1     z-index  1000    position  absolute    left  70px    width  120px    height  100px    top  10px    color  red    background-color  lightyellow      blink     animation  blinker 1s linear infinite      keyframes blinker     50        opacity  0          rotate     writing-mode  vertical-rl    padding-left  50px    font-weight  bold    font-size  20px    x000D   lt div class  div  id  div1  gt div1 lt  br gt z-index  1    lt div class  div  id  div1-1  gt div1-1 lt  br gt z-index  2      lt div class  div  id  div1-1-1  gt div1-1-1 lt  br gt z-index  3 lt  div gt     lt  div gt        lt div class  div  id  div1-2  gt div1-2 lt  br gt z-index  1 lt  br gt  lt span class  rotate blink  gt  lt   lt  span gt       lt div class  div  id  div1-2-1  gt  lt span class  blink  gt z-index  1000   lt  span gt  lt  br gt div1-2-1 lt  br gt  lt span class  blink  gt  because   gt  lt  br gt  same lt  br gt    parent  lt  span gt  lt  div gt     lt  div gt   lt  div gt  x000D   x000D   x000D

z-index property enables you to take your control at front  the bigger number you set the upper your element you get   position property should be relative because position of html-element should be position relatively against other controls in all dimensions   element style      position relative     z-index 1000    change your number as per elements lies on your page

In order for z-index to work  you ll need to give the element a position absolute or a position relative property  Once you do that  your links will function properly  though you may have to tweak your CSS a bit afterwards
