Let's discuss a situation where we have a <div> element with relative positioning, and inside it, there is an absolutely positioned <img>.
<div style="position: relative;">
<img src="image.png" style="position: absolute;" />
<span id="overlay_text">OVERLAY</span>
</div>
The issue at hand is that the element should be positioned at the top of the screen (higher on the Y-axis), but its distance seems to be calculated from the bottom instead.
Utilize the CSS properties z-index and top to create layered elements. Place the div at the bottom, followed by the image, and then the span acting as an overlay on top. Adjust the positioning from the top using top, allowing for negative values to position the element higher on the Y axis than its parent. In the example provided, the span is positioned 10px above the top of its parent div.
<div style="position: relative; z-index: 1;">
<img src="image.png" style="position: absolute; z-index: 2;" />
<span id="overlay_text" style="position: relative; top: -10px; z-index: 3;">OVERLAY</span>
</div>
For certain scenarios, this alternative approach proves to be more effective as it allows the parent div to adopt the height of the image:
<div style="position: relative; z-index: 1;">
<img src="picture.png" />
<span style="position: absolute; top: 0px; z-index: 5;">SUPERIMPOSE</span>
</div>
While I realize this question is not recent, I have observed multiple instances where z-index has been utilized, which might not be essential for this particular scenario and could present challenges when dealing with numerous stacked elements.
Note: The order of stacking goes from the bottom to the top. In this example:
<span>OVERLAY</span> is positioned below <img />.
Hence, span appears on top of img.
<div style="position: relative;">
<img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/67/Delta-shield.png" style="position: absolute;" />
<span id="overlay_text" style="position: relative; top: 8rem; margin-left: 80px">OVERLAY</span>
</div>For more insights on stacking, refer to this resource.
