Jeff's approach sounds proper.

You should also check this issue on the latest Safari, version 3.0.2 (522.12) as of this message, which has addressed many issues with DHTML layers.

If you're completely hiding the Flash layer, then i'd agree Jeff's
suggestion is the way to go as it works consistently across all modern
browsers.

Why not just re-write the div? We hide Flash all the time, by basically
destroying the innerHTML and then later re-loading when you set the
Flash div CSS to 'visible'. It'll be in the cache anyways...

That is exactly what is happening, it flickers. In firefox, safari, it dosen't work at all. I also read everywhere that there is no way to fix
that. Is that right?

Can you describe exactly how it "breaks"?

I know there is an issue with Safari on Mac where the dhtml element
flickers
when placed on top of flash (for an example, go to www.adobe.com, open
one
of the dropdown menus at the top and roll over the items that are
overlaying
the Flash element). That's a Safari bug so there isn't much that can be
done (though i believe its supposed to be fixed in Safari 3).

There are also issues on FireFox and Safari on Mac where if you hover
over
dhtml elements overlaying Flash elements, the swf will still receive
mouse
events. Depending on the situation, you may be able to work around this,
but its ugly at best.

Subject: [Flashcoders] DHTML over flash, Mac issue


Hi everyone,

I’m wondering if anyone ever created a web site using animated dhtml to
hide
a flash movie?

We did a prototype that is working pretty well under PC. But when it come
to
MAC it break.

Any idea how to fix it?
