Dynamic menus underneath Flash :(

[ritche]

Does anyone know how to get dynamic (html) menu dropdowns to appear on top of Flash files? Especially in older browsers (say 4.0 and above?)

All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so to speak,
including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but if you can be
confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+ (Windows only), then you can
use the Flash
wmode parameter. It doesn't work in all browsers (NN4) or platforms (Windows
only) but it's implemented in the latest netscapes:
