RE: [Flashcoders] Flash controling "Z" with div layers
Just FYI, be careful when messing with Flash's wmode. My understanding is that if you switch it from its default, the Flash Player no longer does the rendering, and is instead done by the browser. This can lead to some unpredictable results and performance on various browsers and operating systems. I've always been advised to not switch wmodes unless absolutely necessary (which has thus far been never). - DC -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rákos Attila Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2007 7:40 PM To: Patrick Lemiuex Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Flash controling "Z" with div layers PL> Is it possible to make a flash.swf file appear behind other div PL> layers I create.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash controling "Z" with div layers
Not sure if it will work at all, but what about if you try this, put your swf in a div layer, and test putting another flash swf overlapping that, see how i.e likes it, that will let you know if it can be done. If you get non erroneous results from that, (i.e it actually chooses a layer and puts it on top) a cheat might work with a shim sized flash on which-ever div layer you need it to be on, and then do your text or other content on that layer as well. To clarify, use a second swf, on the div you want on the top, and simply put other content in with it. (btw - never tried this, so, let me know if it works). If that doesn't work, I usually get lucky after searching the forums regarding browser issues, get specific in a google search, usually good results.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flash controling "Z" with div layers
1) Make sure that the DIV that contains your flash content uses: position: absolute; 2) make sure that "wmode"="transparent" in your flash embed and object tag. ( I used SWFObject, so.addParam("wmode", "transparent"); worked a treat. If it helps - I have a sample here: http://www.kurst.co.uk/flashOverHTML/accessories.html -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Lemiuex Sent: 28 March 2007 00:57 To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [Flashcoders] Flash controling "Z" with div layers Is it possible to make a flash.swf file appear behind other div layers I create.
