Hi Sebastian, Thank you very much for the answer! I'll think about this further.

I had it once running for OpenMeetings but removed it again since it did not work for IE8 on Windows7 (but fine everywhere else). Basically the issue of this thing is not OpenLaszlo, its a matter of the embed code and JavaScript code that includes the SWF. What you do is actually adding an overlay over the SWF. So my best advice would be: Try to look into the basic html file that includes the SWF and try to add some static HTML overlay object into that file. If that works, try to make this overlay object "dynamic" by adding some JavaScript methods that create and remove it. And then you only need to trigger those JavaScript methods from OpenLaszlo. Calling the JavaScript from SWF is easy. That might sound more complex as "repairing" the HTML tag in OpenLaszlo, but the issue is really that without debugging OpenLaszlo and compiling OpenLaszlo from source its not possible to resolve.
