Ben Smeets wrote, of WMODE in-browser compositing:
For Firefox browsers too??
Flash Player 6 and above have the hooks necessary to route the Player's
rendering to the browser's offscreen compositing buffer, rather than
directly to screen:

But I'm not sure how well all the various Firefox versions implement
this, particularly when combined with other authoring choices... I've
seen reports that some Firefox don't respect WMODE requests when invoked
from an OBJECT tag rather than an EMBED tag... there was an older
issue in some Microsoft browsers where a WMODE toggle would send to the
printer upside-down... a browser can "support" a feature but there's
always the question of how similar it is in all respects to other
implementations.
Anyway, yeah, WMODE should work in Firefox, try it with a simple file
first, first for background-transparency and then for CSS layering.
