Hi to everyone...

I've got a dropdown menu made with the lists and css. I don't understandy why the dropdown goes underneath the flash movie.

The flash movie is straight under the navigation. Any way to solve that?!

cool... found the solution... just add <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />

Flash, as a plugin occupies (for want of a better word) a z-index outside of the normal flow of the document.

This also applies to some browser elements (which are inherited from the OS), applets etc.

I've seen <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> mooted as a solution, but never tested this!

HTH

Casting my mind back to when I last touched Flash ... (ooh, that long ago) as I recall, transparent backgrounds weren't supported by some browsers. Possibly only Netscape 4, but maybe worth looking into.
