How to use z-index in <a> tag?
I have the following html that I want it to be viewed exactly the opposite of what it looks like now, but I tried a lot and nothing works to be specific. I want link A to be at the top of the link and B one under it, and C one under B, and so on ... I tried to set a z-index for them, but it did not work. explain me your mistake.
HTML:
<html>
<head>
<title>Test page</title>
<link href="style.css" type="text/css" rel="Stylesheet" media="screen" />
</head>
<body>
<div class="d1">
<a href="#" class="a1" style="background-color: #000;">A</a>
<ul class="b1">
<li>
<a href="#" class="a2" style="background-color: #222;">B</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#" class="a2" style="background-color: #444;">C</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#" class="a2" style="background-color: #666;">D</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#" class="a2" style="background-color: #888;">E</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</body>
</html>

You need to specify the positioning <a>, because for work z-indexit is required that the positioning be set to a value other than the staticeasiest to set its positionrelative
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/2JsvU/
a {
position: relative;
z-index: 5;
}
