How to float a div over Google Maps?

Question

I have a div that displays a Google map.

How do I make another div float over the map div?

Answer 1

Just set the position of the div and you may have to set the z-index.

ex.

div#map-div {
    position: absolute;
    left: 10px;
    top: 10px;
}
div#cover-div {
    position:absolute;
    left:10px;
    top: 10px;
    z-index:3;
}
