HomeWeb Front-endCSS TutorialOverlapping elements with Z index using CSS

Using the CSS Z-Index property, developers can stack elements on top of each other. Z-Index can have positive or negative values.

Note - If the overlapping element does not specify a z-index, the element will display the last mention of the document.

Example

Let’s look at an example of the z-index attribute -
