    Hi, I have removed overflow:hidden; from the #nivoSlider css property so that I can display the prev and next arrows either side of my slider but when removing the overflow:hidden; property it messes up the way the slides are displaying.

    my site is http://www.eighttwo.net

    Have spent all day trying to figure this out for myself but no luck. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    > I have removed overflow:hidden; from the #nivoSlider css property so that I can display the prev and next arrows either side of my slider

    Is this a standard feature of the Nivo slider or something you are adding yourself?

    usually the arrows remain within the div of the nivo slider so i am displaying them outside of the div using positioning left: -100px; for the prev image and right: -100px; for the next image. If i add the overflow: hidden; property back to the #nivoSlider the images sit where they should but then i lose the prev and next arrows completely

    So the answer is No.

    How are you positioning them? Have you added `position:relative` to the parent element?

    Have just tried poisiton:relative to the parent element and again lose the arrows altogether. Normally I don’t ask for help on things like this but this one has me stumped.

    I can see the image slides in correctly but then seems to jump up off where it shouldn’t be.

    ok this can be closed I have found a work around, instead of moving the nivo slider I have simply moved the background image up.
