Z-index issues in IE7 - internet-explorer-7

I have a login form in popup in header of my page and below it i have a navigation when i have open the popup the navigation links are showing above the popup. I have set the z-index of navigation 1 and z-index of popup is 10 but is not working in IE7. Anyone can help me

It is a known bug of IE7. Doesnt work in IE7 and IE8(compatibility view). Work around for this is: You need to check the hierarchy. Both pop-up and should be in the same stacking context/or you can say must have parent child relationship. and keep the parent/popup as relative and the z-index should be greater than the child.
you can also check the following link from where i got its example

You ll need to set the popup position as relative, IE reads z-index only when its position is set to relative, just give it a try

Storybook and Tailwind dark-mode works in Document view but not in Canvas view

After setting up the storybook-tailwind-dark-mode add-on for Storybook (by following these steps), my component is no longer displaying correctly in dark-mode in the Canvas view. The component displays correctly while in Document view and other components are displaying correctly in canvas view, so not every component has this issue.
The elements are visible for a split second before the page goes blank. When inspecting the page, I can see all of the elements are there, but they are just not visible.
The only difference to the HTML seems to be the dark class added to the body element.
Any ideas as to why the elements are no longer displayed would be greatly appreciated ⚡️
I've inspected the elements to see what could be causing the elements to not be displayed. I was expecting to see a change to display:none or an element that is in front of the other elements, causing them to be hidden, but it seems the only change is the dark class being added to body.
I've also looked at ./storybook/preview.js and ./storybook/main.js for anything suspicious but I haven't found anything that looks out of place.
There was a modal <div> that had a dark:bg-gray-800 class that was being overlayed over all of the other elements.
The modal was correctly set in light mode to show and hide according to when the modal was open/closed, but this conditional was not applied for dark mode, so the modal was always open, and hiding the other elements.

Overlay not applying to react big calendar

I'm using react-big-calendar with react-sidebar and if the sidebar opens, all the area is covered by overlay but some elements are visible on the top.
What can be the problem?
P.S: I've also given the z-index to both but nothing worked for me!
react-big-calendar with react-sidebar
I don't know the particulars of react-sidebar, but it's definitely a z-index issue. Does react-sidebar provide a Portal option for it's overlay (I'm not seeing one)? RBC is dynamically writing out the events to the page, and using 'auto' z-index, so if your overlay is defined first (like the sidebar is on the left, and calendar on the right), then that's what's happening.

Overlay Chrome Extension Angular

I am working on a chrome extension that would display an overlay over any tabs the user is working on. I need it to operate within the full viewport.
I'm using vanilla javascript and content script to inject a full viewport-size div (to the body since I want it to be used on any website) and then append my template to the div I created and injecting them with Angular. It works very well.
The Problem
However, this overlay is somewhat blocking since the div I create has to have a z-index of at least 0 to be seen. Let's imagine you perform a google search, you will be able to search since the google search bar has z-index > 0 but you won't be able able to click on the results ... The problem appears in pretty much any website.
Now I tried to play with z-index: I apply z-index = -1 so I won't see the main overlay div but the problem with that is that the content I append to it seems to inherit the z-index -1 no matter what so I never see my template!
I've followed quite some topics here but I didn't find an answer to my problem!
The Question at last ...!
How do I create a non-blocking chrome overlay ? :)
Remember: I need to be able to interact with the overlay at any given moment, not simply when I click on the icon related with the BrowserAction!
The trick is simply to add the css property
pointer-events: none;
to the main div and
pointer-events: auto;
to the template

IE display with absolute positioned div

I'm having a display problem with an absolute positioned div in IE6 + IE7
I'm trying to display a drop down menu. this drop down menu is positioned absolute.
now as soon as there's another element below this menu that has position: relative, the absolute positioned drop down menu is displayed behind it.
this only happens in IE7 and 6 as mentioned above.
any ideas on how to fix this?
The css property z-index is there to let you define what object should be displayed "on top". Define z-indexes for all elements in quest (only drop-down should also work I think).
EDIT (based on provided code):
The element to give the z-index property to is "the topmost element with a position attribute that the overlapped div is not part of. In terms of your sample, give the z-index to menu_container or add it to header and give header position: relative (I like the latter option better because it is less likely to break with future changes of your html).
As for an explanation why this is so, in IE6 and IE7 things work as follows: currently absolute_div is above everything inside menu_container, but menu_container is below relative_div, so absolute_div is too. The reason that header doesn't participate in this story is that if no position attribute is given, what is displayed in front and what is in the back is calculated differently.

z-index issue in IE7

I am trying to call one div on click of select element. there are 4 select elements two in each row. When that div is called it goes behind the succesive select element. This issue is specific to IE7. It works fine with IE8 and firefox3.
please can anybody help...
Thanks,
You can read the following link for a detailed info
How the Z-index Attribute Works for HTML Elements
There are two work around for this.
The first is to hide the select element when the div appears. This might not be a good solution.
The other better solutions is to place an iframe at the same position as that of the div.
The iFrame must be added at the end of the page so that it appears in front of all other windowed controls (the windowed controls are stacked in the order in which they appear on the page). That takes care of covering any SELECT that may be in our way.
