Have you tried Z-index properties? http://www.w3schools.com/Css/pr_pos_z-index.asp

Add this parameter to the object tag:

HTML Code:

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

and this to the embed tag:

HTML Code:

wmode="transparent"

Good luck!

Greetings! First time poster here.

I just downloaded the Chrome Menu Bar and have customized the colors to work with the page I am developing for a friend.

In IE, the menu pops in front of the flash, but will not in Firefox. I would greatly appreciate some assistance as to why "wmode" doesn't work in FF.

Here is the sample page:

I have tried putting the flash in a div then applying a css rule stating z-index to "0", otherwise, I just use the "wmode" parameters.

Thanks in advance, please let me know if you need any other coding pasted.

Be well,

damonpla

Works fine for me in Fx3.0.8, try refreshing your browser.

lol, well when you showed what version you were running I thought, "hey now..." and checked my version. It was 2.0. Updated to 3 and it works like a charm. I guess those people who don't update their browser (me) won't see it work.

Thanks for your time Snookerman!
