CSS - Can't get the z-index to apply correctly in Internet Explorer
- by peaki
I've written a jQuery script to replace <select /> elements with some DIV's and UL's allowing my to simulate the original SELECT but also allow me to style it. So far, aside from a few minor bugs, it works rather nicely.
However, in Internet Explorer, the 'options' div is getting rendered underneath the elements below the div.
Here's the HTML:
<div class="styledSelect-parent" style="display: inline-block; width: 59px;">
<div class="styledSelect-newSelect" style="position: relative;">
<input class="styledSelect-newSelect-selector" style="width: 59px;" readonly="readonly" name="hello" value="Test1" type="text">
<div class="styledSelect-newSelect-options" style="display: none; z-index: 20; width: 59px; position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 18px;">
<ul>
<li>Test1</li>
<li>Test2</li>
<li>Test3</li>
<li class="styledSelect-active">Test4</li>
<li>Test1</li>
<li>Test2</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<br /><br />
<div class="styledSelect-parent" style="display: inline-block; width: 59px;">
<div class="styledSelect-newSelect" style="position: relative;">
<input class="styledSelect-newSelect-selector" style="width: 59px;" readonly="readonly" name="hello" value="Test1" type="text">
<div class="styledSelect-newSelect-options" style="display: none; z-index: 20; width: 59px; position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 18px;">
<ul>
<li class="styledSelect-active">Test1</li>
<li>Test2</li>
<li>Test3</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
If I open the first select, the LI list sits underneath the second select box rather than above it. I can't get the z-indexes to work properly.
What am I missing? :/
