When I add a SVG with fixed positioning my form and hover states on my button stop working
I have a link here to https://codepen.io/PhysicsKid/pen/gQXPPZ.
svg {
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
}
This is they styling that I have on the SVG. I have a hover state for the submit button also.
button:hover {
color: white;
background-color: dodgerblue;
border: 3px solid white;
}
When I comment out the SVG the form and the hover state both work. I am not sure what is causing the problem. I think the SVG might be covering the other elements so that they can not be selected but if that is the case I do not know how to fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Add pointer-events: none;
to the css definition for the SVG. This will keep it from blocking the mouse events from the elements placed below it (which is the root of your issue). See the fixed example here
