Bootstrap 3 - navbar issue when it's fixed

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20632962

Question

With Bootstrap 3 navigation bar, I want to display Google place options on an input text field. Following is the screen shot for same:

enter image description here

As can be seen from screen shots, when navbar is fixed, options are displayed at the back. And, when navbar is static, options are displayed as expected. I want the options to be displayed properly when navbar is fixed.

I tried to point the code on bootply but, it's not working. Working code at JSFiddle. Also, code is as under:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

    <!-- Bootstrap core CSS -->

    <script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?libraries=places&sensor=false"></script>

  </head>

  <body style="min-height:      2000px;">

    <div class="container">

      <!-- Static navbar -->
      <div class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-top" role="navigation">
        <div class="navbar-header">
          <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-collapse">

        new google.maps.places.Autocomplete( inputField, options );

    };

</script>

Please help.

Thanks much in advance!

Solution

This is because of the z-index of your elements. Try changing the z-index of .pac-container. Example: .pac-container { z-index: 9999; }.
