I am new to using flash and I cannot display my navigation bar above the flash picture player. I have tried using opaque and transparent, plus playing with the z-index and I am at a loss for what to do. The page I am working on is Lake Park Dentistry
This is for a school project and any help that could be provided would be great!
Trick 1:
Use javascript to set document.getElementById('idname').style.visibility = 'hidden' on the flash object when onmouseover and when you onmouseout make it visible again.
Tip: do the same for form fields in IE (only IE, any other browser works flawless)
Trick 2:
If you don't care about IE6 and old Flash players nor Linux nor Safari then push the z-index and render the menu at an absolute position using a div before the closing body element
Trick 3:
Use the z-index and in JavaScript push a z-index on each div element only in IE
You need to export the flash file with wmode set to transparent. As Z-index doesn't work as expected with Flash. It will always, regardless of the stacking order, appear on top. Unless you set the Wmode accordingly.
Linear Mode
