Hey,
I have not run in to this problem yet with prototype window but I ran
in to it before with some thing that I was working on and the way that I
found around it was when I launched my float I scaned the dom for flash
objects and set them to be invisable and when I was finished with my fload
made them visable again. Not very elagent I know but it worked..... see
below code

*
function* showHideFlash() {
// IE
*var* objects = document.getElementsByTagName("object");
*for*(*var* i = 0; i < objects.length; i++) {
*if* (isFlash(objects[i])) {
*if* (objects[i].style.visibility == "hidden") {
objects[i].style.visibility = "";
} *else* {
objects[i].style.visibility = "hidden";
}
}
}
// Firefox
*var* objects = document.getElementsByTagName("embed");
*for*(*var* i = 0; i < objects.length; i++) {
*if* (isFlash(objects[i])) {
*if* (objects[i].style.visibility == "hidden") {
objects[i].style.visibility = "";
} *else* {
objects[i].style.visibility = "hidden";
}
}
}
}
*
function* isFlash(element) {
// IE
*if* (element.classid) {
*if* (element.classid == "clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000") {
*return* *true*;
}
}
// Firefox
*if* (element.type) {
*if* (element.type == "application/x-shockwave-flash") {
*return* *true*;
}
}
*return* *false*;
}

Hello,
I'm trying to use the Prototype window class to popup a window over a
Flash SWF. The window connects to a URL for the content. This works great
in IE 6,7 and FireFox 1+ in Windows – but fails to show properly in Firefox
on the Mac or safari. I'm willing to forget about safari, as it always
tends to be a problem – but I would really like to get this to work on
FireFox for the Mac. It seems like the SWF is always on top for some
reason. I'm using "wmode = transparent" for the swf. Has anyone had a
similar issue and know a way to fix it?
Any help or advice you can provide is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
