Suckertree Menu not working with Flash

I'm using, and loving, the DD Suckertree Horizontal Dropdown menu, which on my homepage sits immediately above an embedded swf flash image. The menu works wonderfully on other pages, where there is a static image below the menu, but the second level menu items don't parse correctly on the homepage with the flash image.

I found one great solution that - hold your breath - actually works for IE, but not for the rest of the known world. As suggested by Zach Graeve at EcoDesigns I modified the embedded flash with:

<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
wmode=”transparent”

I've also tried adjusting the z-index of the containers where the menu and flash scripts are located, but z-index is doing nothing.

Recall the Suckertree menu does use JavaScript and there is code to handle the events, which of course are different for IE and W3C.

Here's a link to my homepage - currently in design. I have used a very cumbersome trick to get FF working decently, but it doesn't work for Opera, Safari, or Google Chrome. See the "registration" tab, I haven't tinkered with that yet. I have "tricked" the "information" tab so it more or less works in FF.
