    <p>I'm using the equal heights CSS trick as outlined on this <a href="http://www.ejeliot.com/blog/61" rel="noreferrer">page</a>.</p> <p>It was all working fine until today when I need to add a dialogue box inside one of the columns, which is absolutely positioned to take it out of the flow. The problem is that since the container has "overflow: hidden" on it, the dialogue is being cut off when it overflows.</p> <p>Aside from bringing the dialogue outside of the container element, is there any possible way to get it to show via CSS?</p> <p>Here's a small example demonstrating what I've mentioned.</p> <pre><code>&lt;style&gt; .container { overflow: hidden; margin-top: 30px } .col { float: left; padding-bottom: 2000px; margin-bottom: -2000px; border-right: 1px solid black; width: 100px; background-color: grey; } .col.third { border-right: none } #div-a { position: relative } #div-b { position: absolute; background-color: red; width: 35px; height: 350px; bottom: 0; right: 0; margin: 5px; border: 2px solid black; } &lt;/style&gt; &lt;div class="container"&gt; &lt;div class="col first"&gt; &lt;p style="height: 100px"&gt;One&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="col second"&gt; &lt;p style="height: 300px"&gt;Two&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div id="div-a"&gt; &lt;!-- this gets cut off by the "overflow: hidden" on div.container --&gt; &lt;div id="div-b"&gt; Foo &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="col third"&gt; &lt;p style="height: 200px"&gt;Three&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>You see that <code>div#div-b</code> is cut off at the top when it overflows in the <code>div.container</code> element.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
