cart v6.5

I've customized my DEFAULT.ASP page and have a small Flash video box embedded in the body area, top right corner under the horizontal nav bar. My problem is that when the submenus expand, they go under the Flash box, thus, most of the far right drop down menus are hidden.

I'm guessing this is a layers control problem but cannot figure out what to add to my EMBED or what to edit for the menu controls. Anyone dealt with this before???

Regards,

Eric in Maine

Not much you can do with that other than move the flash movie down or to another part of the page.

As usual, VP-ASP tech support to the rescue. Thanks Michael!

*************

Browsers by default render flash as the last element on a page, and don't take into account CSS layers.

To have anything with layers appear over a flash object, you need to assign wmode="transparent" attributes to your flash code.

In the HTML code, you must add the wmode parameter to the object tag, with either opaque or transparent as values. eg:
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

The EMBED tag must have the wmode parameter as well:
wmode="transparent"
