I know this has been asked and answered a kagillion times, but I can't seem to get a definitive answer in my searches:
The whole DHTML layer, browser, and flash object wmode thing - we can get our DHTML layer to show over the top of our flash piece (which contains some solid background images with animations) in IE using wmode=transparent and Flash on layer1, but not Firefox, Netscape or Opera - I KNEW (or at least I thought I knew) this had been a problem already and that there hadn't been a workaround, but then I saw this article: http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?cid=E5141 It says, "It's not uncommon to hear developers complaining that their DHTML menus, when triggered, have dropped behind the Flash movie below them. It's also not uncommon to hear, "that's just how they work." Before Flash Player 6, that was true in many browsers. But nowadays, it's become urban legend.... With Flash Player 6, Macromedia introduced windowless mode for Netscape and Mac OS X...." So can we do it or not? And if so how? Right now we have to do some browser detection and then render out either the Flash or the image.
