click through an overlay element pointer events

This one is usefull if you have an element overlapping another element and you want the one underneath to be clickable, like positioning an image over the top of a slider with controls underneath it.

CSS

pointer-events: none;

Here is some testing i did for this, you can see that it disables the ability to click through the element with a onclick.

HTML

<div class='my-base-element' onclick="window.open('https://kruxor.com/','_self');">
  <div class='another-element'>x</div>
</div>

CSS

.my-base-element {
	height:400px;
  	width:400px;
  	margin:20px;
  	background:#999;
  	border-radius:10px;
	position:relative;
    pointer-events: none;
}
.another-element {
    position: absolute;
    top: 20px;
    left: 20px;
    content: "";
    border-radius: 30px;
    height: 30px;
    width: 30px;
    background: #F00;
  	
}
x

therock Somewhere along this crazy road I learned (often times the hard way) the most important things I can do is be authentic, trust my gut, be the hardest worker in the room, celebrate the mistakes, be a grateful man and always remember that it's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
