I am using a banner that fills my entire screen, a hero banner, and when i add a content div below it the text just displays over the banner. i belive the problem is something to do with the "absolute" positioning of my hero banner. but if i change the positioning the text on the banner goes crazy. any ideas?
body,
html {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
font-size: 100%;
background-color: #333;

h1 {
font-size: 5em;

h2 {
font-size: 2.5em;
}
#content {
font-family: sans-serif;
margin: 0.5%;
font-size: 170%;
border: 10px outset orange;
color: white;
text-align: justify;
padding: 1.5%;
line-height: 125%;
position: absolute;
}
