    Default drop down menu opens behind the image

    On my homepage (http://www.st-triphon.ch/photosst_triphon/diashow.html) I have a slide show that I've downloaded from your site and which is running perfectly. On top of the slide show I have a drop down menu. Unfortunately it opens behind the images, which makes it impossible to select the links. How to solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Add a z-index to the menu, to bring it in front of the image.

    Like so:

    Code:
    #menu{
    z-index:100;
    }
    And make sure the slideshow z-index is less than the menu's, so you could set the slideshow z-index to 50 for example.

    Change the #menu to the class or id that you're using for your menu,

    Good luck,

    Jack.

    add the tags in red to your Flash embed... then it will work!
