There are several ways to resolve the problem of the dropdown navigation bar subitems overlapping with the datatable causing it to appear transparent. Here are some possible solutions:

  1. Adjust the z-index: One way to prevent the subitems of the dropdown navigation bar from overlapping with the datatable is to adjust the z-index property of the navigation bar and the datatable. By setting a higher z-index value for the navigation bar, it will appear on top of the datatable and prevent the subitems from overlapping. You can use CSS to set the z-index values for both elements.

  2. Use position:fixed: Another way to prevent the subitems of the dropdown navigation bar from overlapping with the datatable is to use the position:fixed property. By setting the navigation bar to have a fixed position, it will remain in place regardless of how much the user scrolls down the page. This will prevent it from overlapping with the datatable below it.

  3. Use a modal or overlay: If the above solutions don't work or aren't viable, another option is to use a modal or overlay to display the dropdown subitems. This will prevent them from overlapping with the datatable and provide a clear separation between the navigation bar and the content below it. However, this may not be the best solution if you need the dropdown menu to be accessible at all times.

  4. Redesign the layout: Finally, if none of the above solutions work, you may need to redesign the layout of your page to provide more space between the navigation bar and the datatable. This could involve rearranging the elements on the page or reducing the size of the navigation bar or datatable. While this may require more work upfront, it can provide a more long-term solution to the problem of the overlapping subitems.
