pop up menu overlap flash movie

[yllai]

Hi,
i use show pop up menu and on mouse over events for my menu bar on the top of my page. in the top of my content page (after menu bar), i add in a flash movie. So, when I move my mouse over the menu 'products', it should pop up a list of products...product A, C, D, E...but the product E was hided/ overlaped by the flash movie.
So, how can I fix it where the pop up menu will not overlapped with the flash movie? Any idea?

thank you.

Not possible I'm afraid. A flash movie will always take precedence no matter how the info is presented (z-indexed..etc or not). The 3rd party software (flashplayer) controls it's own screen real estate and no level of tinkering will allow you to overlap it... as far as I know...

Limbo is right ..flash movie player owns the pixel space allocated to it by the .swf file called ..it is "always on top"..also one of the reasons that it can present a ( rare ) security risk ..it hooks very deep into the OS to do it's stuff ..

I was wrong - this can be done using the w-mode propery of the embed tag - set it to transparent
Search for: flash wmode transparent. Useful when using sifr
