Z-index: Problem with navigation

HTML & CSS
1

Hi there,

I am building my online portfolio and have an intermediate knowledge of html/css etc however I’m really stuck on this problem.

I have the Nivo slider working but I am trying to get it BEHIND my navigation… so that the navigation will be on top of the images so to speak.
I have tried using Z-index in my css by giving the navigation divs a higher z-index. I just read one post which suggested the navigation have a z-index higher than 200 but that didn’t work either.

Can anybody help?

Here is my website, it’s in a very primitive state!! Haven’t moved CSS yet or anything - http://ellekorhaliller.co.uk/jQuery/index.html

Many thanks.

I’m not sure if you noticed this, but you have an extra > in your navigation id name. After you fix that add position:absolute; to your #navigation. Hope that helps.
