Re: [WSG] CSS drop-down menus

2004-11-01 Thread Kay Smoljak
On the Perth Festival site last year (actual page no longer online) we
used some JavaScript to hide and display the Flash movie when the drop
down menu was activated. As the Flash was eyecandy only, it didn't
matter - we figured that if someone was examining the menu, they
weren't watching the page anyway.

Re: [WSG] CSS drop-down menus

object
param name=wmode value=transparent
embed wmode=transparent  /
/object

setting wmode to transparent on both the object tag and the embed tag
seems to work in all current browsers. i think netscape 6 had a
problem with it, but who uses that! ;)

RE: [WSG] CSS drop-down menus

2004-10-31 Thread Stephen Cheshire
That's correct - embeded (with the embed tag) content does always
appear on top. However, for browsers that make use of the object tag -
IE for example, you can do this by including an extra param tag in your
object tag as follows:

param name=wmode value=transparent

 will the CSS drop-down menus drop down over the Flash banner 
 correctly?

No. Embedded content (Flash, Quicktime, etc.) always appears above 
other content, regardless of z-index.

this saves me some big headaches with my client!
