Floating a div over a div...

[jongeeone]

Having a slight problem.

I have some text, and i want a flash image i have made to be the background. Obviously this can't be done just by using CSS... so i understand i have to float the text infront of background image.

Can't some one give me some sligiht pointers? I have tried everything... or so it seems, but i just can't get the text to float over the flash file.

Thanks

Can't you absolutely position your html over top of the flash and then use wmode to set transparency on the flash to allow it to appear on top?

IIRC when you position divs absolutely Flash appears on top of them reguardless of wmode or zindex. Relative position is fine.

Could be wrong as it's a while since I've done it - may be worth investigating first before commiting yourself to a design.
