I'm working on a blogger theme, it would seem that banner ads, as well as the blogger login widget are hidden behind a layer on the side bars. They show up for a moment, then get covered by the side blocks they should be 'in' I saw something in the forums regarding a z value.. Is this also something I need to change? if so, which z value should I be changing to allow these items in the side bars to show over the block layers.

You don't provide the link to your blog, so it's hard to give you any useful hint without seeing what's happening.

Usually, you don't need to change the z-index value excerpt when you are moving elements out of their normal flow by using the position attributes of CSS; especially with the "absolute" and the "fixed" positions but also sometimes with the "relative" position as well.

Even in these cases, changing the z-index is not always the silver bullet because you're still limited by some hierarchical properties of the DOM; so you might have to move the place where you declare them around.

I've put some examples (in yellow) with the "fixed" position on the following testing blog: http://test.sylvainlafontaine.com

Whats happening, is in blogger widgets I place a html/javascript widget, add in a standard html ad and save.. I am able to see the ads properly on say, IE, however when I go to firefox, or google chrome, they show for a second, then vanish.. Then on other sites in those same browsers, similar ads appear as normal.

Firefox has some serious bugs when it comes to display IFrame tag and many of these ads are based on IFrame.

Try to click on the Refresh button while holding down the Ctrl key in order to reopen the page into a new tab. This should refresh the cache of Firefox and will temporarily correct the problem. Of course, doing this doesn't really correct your problem.

I have found sme possible solutions. but they vary depending on what ad network your ads are from.

Most common solution:

go back to your ads HTML/JS widget and make sure that the code has these enter lines before and after the code:

*AD------/
(space)
<code>
(space)
*/--------AD

republish

or erase and republish

It seems ridiculous but if you comment the code, even if it commented out. Chrome and firefox will know. I have fixed ads that way...believe it or not...
