Topic: Z-index not working for dropdowns

stefangregg priority asked 1 year ago


Hia,I have a dynamic datatable with a dropdown in the last column.

However, the dropdown is underneath the pagination section:enter image description here

This tends to happen when only a few items are in the table.

How can I get this dropdown to be over the datatable pagination since it cuts off access to the other dropdown options?

Please see this snippet: https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/standard/mlazaru/4845716

Adding "z-index: 9999 !important;" to any of the dropdown elements doesn't work!

I using the normal dropdown initialization:

<a id="dropdownMenuLink" data-mdb-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">Options</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuLink">
  <li><a class="dropdown-item">Option 1</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item">Option 2</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item">Option 3</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item">Option 4</a></li>
</ul>

Cheers!

@mlazaru, thanks for the help but it didn't work. Please have a look at this snippet:

This issue only tends to happen when only one item is in the table, is it possible to change the dropdown parent maybe?
