I am new to all css layouts, but not new to the world of webdesign. I am creating a website and I went to go add a home link on some of the pages. the link shows up in the code, and it displays ~~home~~ on the pages where it should be displayed, but you cannot highlight the link or click it.

im assuming its a layering issue but i have been working non-stop hunting for information on the web for other topics and i am hoping that someone can just provide me with the answer here.

here are the necessary links...

It could just be that something is covering the home DIv so try applying a z-index:10; on the home id and see what happens.

awesome it worked.

so i guess i was right in my guess of whats was wrong with the layers not overlapping each other like i wanted.

the z-index reorders the layers. why did you choose the number 10? just a number to assure it would be on top of the other layers?

thanks alot for that!

Yes, 10 is just a number which would make sure it's higher than others.

since this is already answered, some tips in troubleshoting layers next time add some background colors to your divs, you may add borders if required, you will see which div overlaps important divs... then either you can arrange margins and positioning, or adjust the layers...
