hmmm, this seems to have come up a lot over the last few days....

form elements, applets and flash (in fact anything in an embed tag) is a
windowed control and as such will show through layers etc on top of it AFAIK
there is one way around this for embeds that is if you have a iverlapping
layer you need to set the style.display to none and the back to block when
your overlapping layer (menu, dropdown list etc) goes away.... interesting
to hear of a way around form elements I'll give that one a try.

if ayone knows any different I'd love to know...

I've been able to work around the form thing by embedding an image in the
back of the top dynlayer. I've made the layer a table and set the background
image in the table .. that stops form elements on a lower layer from
showing.

Dunno about Flash .. I have the same problem with a Java applet always
appearing on top, there doesn't seem to be anyway around this and I assume
it's just the way the browsers work >8-(
