Oh i tried to past actual div tag but it got filtered out

when i see it in firebug when page is loaded it is like

div class=”image” style=”background: transparent url(assets/images/pic0.jpg) repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; z-index: 0;” id=”cotNwsImg0″

When the image scrolls after every 8 seconds (driven by javascript – there are total five images that scroll) it appears as below.

@balu: Have you used the firebug plugin to make sure your CSS is applying the way you expect it to?

@balu: Have you tried making sure that your dropdown or the drop-down’s container element has a sufficiently large *positive* z-index? Whenever I’ve built a fly-out or drop-down menu, I’ve wound up having to give those elements a positive z-index (say, 99) and the elements they appear over a low z-index (maybe around 5 or 10). This is usually enough to solve any drop-behind issues I’m having.

I have similar problem. There is a dropdown ( structure), which drops down on mouse hover over a H2 with some background image. The dropdown content goes behind image this dropdown. But, i checked css and there is no negative z-index value in there.
the problem is specially in FF 2. it works in all the rest.

any idea

Comment on Designing for Email by Justin Cary

Nice!!! What a pain something as simple as sending an email has become. If you want your audience to view things the way you want them to you need to drive them to the web as quickly as possible. I think that’s a great rule to live by. Give them something to bite on and lead them to the “buy it now” button on your website! Good luck my friend.
