Question

I have 2 divs in an outer div. The outer div has a top margin so there is a space above it. I want to move the left inner div a little up to fill some of that space. I did a minus margin-top.. it works, it pushes the left inner div up.. but it hides the top 10px that moved up. I want them to stay visible.

I tried making the div have z-index to the front (1) but it does not work. I want to move the inner left div up and want the pushed up part to stay visible.

<div id="line"> //style margin-top:30px

  <div id="lineleft"> //style margin-top:-10 z-index=1
  </div>

  <div id="lineright">
  </div>

</div>

Answer 1

You may need to change the value of the overflow property on the outer div.
