Flash ovelaps Javascript pop-up

  • Hello. I have problem with my website. I’ve got a Javascript navigation panel just over the Flash based panel. When you mouse over the Javascript panel. a menu pops up with the pages. The problem is, it gets overlaid by Flash. I googled and found a solution, to add wmode=”opaque” the code. It fixed the problem in the new Chrome, but I still have problems with IE 7, Firefox under 3.0 and all the Safari browsers.
    This is how my code looks like:

    <div id="flashnav">
<object width="940" height="100">
<param name="movie" value="https://734.msk.ru/wordpress/wp-content/navmarkIV.swf">
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
<embed src="https://734.msk.ru/wordpress/wp-content/navmarkIV.swf" wmode="opaque" width="940" height="100"></embed>
</object>

    Now the website itself. There’s a problem. It’s in Russian, but I hope it’s OK.

  • This is a well known problem with IE – it ignores z-index and always draws Flash on top of everything else on the page.

    I did come up with a kludgey workaround a while back, and that’s to put the Flash movie into its own HTML file and then load that file into an iframe.

    Hope that helps

    Thanks for the reply.
    Is it just me, or this is a little bit hardcore? I mean, wouldn’t it slow the site down drastically?
