Menu
I am making a website with css and jquery. One of my script is to show a text at a specific location on a mouse click. The text is displayed good in google chrome at its intended position. but in IE9 and FF17 they are displaced from the intended position. My background image is such that it fits to the size of the window of the browser.
I am attaching the screenshot which will give a better idea. Also I am writing the code. maybe only a small tweak is required but I do not get it. Please help me in this.
This is the comparison between chrome and IE. the right one is chrome which is the right one. FF and IE display at same positions.
Thanks

There is a simple hack that will work in IE9 for vertically centering elements. It uses the transform: translateY property to adjust an element within another element. We can apply a class to our inner element like so:
.element {
position: relative;
top: 50%;
transform: translateY(-50%);
}
You'll need to add the appropriate vendor prefixes. Here is a great article on this: http://zerosixthree.se/vertical-align-anything-with-just-3-lines-of-css/

Firstly, for fixed positioning, use: top, bottom, left, right attributes instead of margin-top, margin-right..
Secondly, you've applied same z-index'es on siblings.
Thirdly, use of img element for background this way is not the best solution.
You should go for CSS background-image for body or text-div wrapper, stretched to 100%.
Full solution:
