Custom CSS for dropdown box

Question

For my dropdown box I have added custom css which was extracted from Codepen project .

This is my HTML

<div class="size  ">
    <form action="#">
        sort by:
        <select name="size" id="sort-by" class="custom-select sources" placeholder="Source Type">
            <option value="price-asc" {{ app('request')->input('sort')=='price-asc'?'selected':''}}>Price: Lowest first</option>
            <option value="price-desc" {{ app('request')->input('sort')=='price-desc'?'selected':''}}>Price: Highest first</option>
            <option value="name-asc" {{ app('request')->input('sort')=='name-asc'?'selected':''}}>Product Name: A to Z</option>
            <option value="name-desc" {{ app('request')->input('sort')=='name-desc'?'selected':''}}>Product Name: Z to A</option>
        </select>
    </form>
</div>

Dropdown is working perfectly . But its options display beyond other elements. Please see the below image.

So could anyone please tell me whats wrong in here.

Most likely an issue of z-index. Searching your CSS doesn't show any mention of it, which would make it follow the static flow, which means it would be shown under any subsequently-placed or higher z-index elements.

The linked example doesn't have any other elements on the page, so this isn't a problem. Changing the z-index of the popup element to something arbitrarily large may fix the problem.

Using z-index and setting it to a higher value for instance 99 should get your element to the top. z-index only works on positioned elements (position: absolute, position: relative, position: fixed, or position: sticky).
