Drop Down Menu Issue

  1. Default Drop Down Menu Issue

    I've created a drop down menu and part of it overlaps a flash movie. Where it
    overlaps the flash movie interferes with the menu.
    How can I stop this from happening.
    Thanks

  2. Default Re: Drop Down Menu Issue

    All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so to speak,
    including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and Active X controls.
    This means that each of these will poke through layers. There is not a good
    cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but if you can be
    confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+, then you can use the Flash
    wmode parameter (however, Safari does not support this properly!).

    Try this instead of your object - Safari might turn it's nose up at it
    however......

    <object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
    codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0"
    height="200" width="800">
    <param name="movie" value="education/CHALKBOARD.swf">
    <param name="quality" value="high">
    <embed src="education/CHALKBOARD.swf" quality="high"
    pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="200" width="800"
    wmode="opaque">
    </object>
