How to make the menus not hidden by flash

Post by kerpogi »

Greetings,

Was just wondering if anyone out there can help point out to me the steps i need to take to make my sub-menus appear on top of any flash animation, instead of being covered underneath the flash animation.

I see this is a general concern, I hope someone can figure this one out and help me.

Regards,

Kerwin

Look for "wmode flash" in google.

You have to set the flash movie background in transparent mode.

Out of curiosity is there a way for the menu to show over an applet? v5 or v3x

Agreed, topachou. Re applets, I think because applets are a separate entity from the page they are not really accessible through the DOM. So increasing the menus x-index above that of the applet I think is not possible. But I would love it if I could stand corrected. ;)
