Title rewritten to: Use z-index to display text on hover with CSS, causing div to move
<p>When I hover over the first div to display the full text, the position of the second div changes so that it is behind the first div. I want the second div to stay in place and the first div's text to cover it. </p>

<pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false;"><html>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div>1) This is the full title I want to display. It's very long and will completely cover the next div.
</div>
<div>2) This is the full title I want to display. It's very long and will completely cover the next div.
</div>
<div>3) This is the full title I want to display. It's very long and will completely cover the next div.

</div>
