Two sliders on top of each other

[XaviJr]

Here’s what I’ve done so far:
http://jsfiddle.net/9wPDy/2/

3 problems here:
– Why header isn’t on top of everything?
– Why isn’t overflow-x not working?
– Why does the text slider appearing on top of the images slider?

PS: I need to have 2 independent sliders because I’m gonna have content between them.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Ok, the header was a problem of my example, I have now a defined size.

The z-index was only to have the content bellow the header (z-index: 2). I want to have #text-wrapper bellow the #img-wrapper.

I can’t remove position: absolute (http://jsfiddle.net/9wPDy/4/) because I want to make a slider from this (that’s why my mix up with the names) and I need to be able to set the x position of each image inside their wrapper and each text inside theirs. I think this is my biggest problem. How to position them inside the container?

Here’s what happens if I don’t use the position: absolute

I’m not sure it is.

Why not just put a single working slider in place first (**which one are you using BTW?**), build around it and debug from there?

I’m trying to build one for myself @Paulie_D.

Ok, so I’m following your advise and just begin to build the slider. I want a slider with 100% width, the images with 90% width and I want to slide them horizontally.

My CSS problem continues, I can’t make the images float inside him: http://jsfiddle.net/jAyHa/1/

If the images are 90% width then I don’t think floating is the answer (I could be wrong).

Why not look at an existing slider ( I hear the [Anything Slider](https://github.com/CSS-Tricks/AnythingSlider “Anything Slider”) is pretty awesome) and see how they did it?

Oh, that can be an idea, I can use inline-block instead of float. Let me try..

I like to use Anything Slider but it doesn’t work as I want, it has an expand option but the images simply don’t adjust their height. Still, I’ll look into their code.

It’s curious that Anything Slider uses float too. I tried to copy them but couldn’t do it. display: inline-block have the same results.

I guess It’s better to search some plugin already made.
