Hi guys,

Got a flash movie that spans my web page. I want a menu on top of it. If I use position:absolute, even with a high z-index I still cant see the menu. Is there any way to do this?

thanks
 
Thanks for the replies guys. Not a major problem, I can just do things a different way.

thanks again! :)

It is possible but you need some additional parameters on the flash file.

Code:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/_flash/flash_file.swf" width="width" height="height">
<param name="movie" value="/_flash/flash_file.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
<param name="menu" value="false" />
<img src="/_images/flash_alt_image.jpg" width="width" height="height" alt="" />
</object>

EDIT: It doesnt seem to load in IE 6 now, just get the progress bar stopping and a blank space. :(

Works in FF though.
