How can CSS and JavaScript be used to overlay interactive elements on top of uploaded images in a PHP application?

To overlay interactive elements on top of uploaded images in a PHP application, you can use CSS to position the elements on top of the image and JavaScript to handle the interactivity. You can achieve this by creating a container div that holds both the uploaded image and the interactive elements, then using CSS to position the interactive elements on top of the image. JavaScript can be used to add event listeners to the interactive elements for interactivity.

<div style="position: relative;">
    <img src="uploaded_image.jpg" style="width: 100%;" />
    <div id="interactive_element" style="position: absolute; top: 50%; left: 50%; transform: translate(-50%, -50%); background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); color: white; padding: 10px;">
        Interactive Element
    </div>
</div>

<script>
    document.getElementById('interactive_element').addEventListener('click', function() {
        alert('Interactive element clicked!');
    });
</script>
