Flash overlays DHMTL menu

[euan_ecosse]

Hi, I'm a bit of a novice with flash. I have a drop-down DHMTL menu on my site
and have added a flash animation underneath. Unfortunately, the flash plays
over the drop-down menus thus hiding the menu options.

I've tried using layers and resetting the z-index which works ok with ordinary
images but when I place the flash animation inside the layer it just over-rides
the menus again!

I don't want to use an animated gif if possible. Am going slightly mad with
this so any help would be REALLY apprecited.

Thanks.

Euan
