Z-index broken in IE8?
- by Anna
Hi there
This code works in every other browser I've tried, except IE8.
IE8 appears to ignore the z-index - and the pop-up becomes a pop-under.
It's in the right place, just renders underneath the thumbnail.
Anyone?
Thanks!
HTML:
<a class="thumbnail" href="#thumb">
<img src="/images/comic_a3_thumb.jpg" height="300" width="212" border="0"
style="float:right; margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px;" alt="description" />
<span>
<img src="/images/comic_a3_popup.jpg" />
/span>
</a>
CSS:
.thumbnail{
position: relative;
z-index: 0;
}
.thumbnail:hover{
background-color: transparent;
z-index: 50;
}
.thumbnail span{ /*CSS for enlarged image*/
position: absolute;
background-color: lightyellow;
padding: 5px;
left: 0px;
border: 1px dashed gray;
visibility: hidden;
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
.thumbnail span img{ /*CSS for enlarged image*/
border-width: 0;
padding: 2px;
}
.thumbnail:hover span{ /*CSS for enlarged image on hover*/
visibility: visible;
top: -140px; /*position where enlarged image should offset horizontally */
left: -500px;
}
