The carousel top position in Bootstrap 4 is not functioning properly

I am struggling to get the teal rectangle to move to the top of the carousel. I have set my carousel to have a position relative and my teal rectangle to have a position absolute with top="0", but it doesn't seem to be working properly. Instead of moving to the top of the carousel, my teal rectangle keeps moving to the top of the browser window. Can anyone help me figure out what I am missing?

.rectangle1 {
    width: 100%;
    height: 70px;
    background-color: grey;
}

.rectangle2 {
    width: 100%;
    height: 200px;
    background-color: teal;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
}

.rectangle3 {
    width: 100%;
    height: 400px;
    background-color: lightblue;
}

.parent-carousel {
    position: relative;
}

Answer №1

Experiment with placing the div.rectangle2 within the confines of div.parent-carousel and ensuring a z-index: 1 is assigned to keep it in view.

Remember, when an element is positioned absolutely, it is in relation to the nearest parent element with a declared position: relative (or <body>).
