    Exclamation Dropdown menu behind flash animation (Firefox)

    I'm using the Chromemenu script :

    http://www.autourdenous.org/test/main.php

    and the menu in firefox goes behind my flash animation, I've tried to add :

    <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> and wmode="transparent" in the embed, but not working, so I tried putting the flash animation in a div :

    .flashDiv {
    z-index: 3;
    }

    and the css style of my menu with z-index:1;

    still not working

    any idea ?

    Default

    First of all, the higher z-index value will (other things being 'equal') appear over the lower value so, if you were to code it as you have it in your post, the flash would always be on top of the menu.

    You've got the right idea about wmode. However, if you are also using javascript to avoid the 'click to activate' feature, you must make sure that the script you are using maintains/uses the wmode transparent value for both the object and the embed it generates.
