Hmmm.... I was too happy too soon.... While the layout now is OK, the flex application starts to act up with Swedish keyboard layout and I am not able to enter certain characters (for example the @-sign.......) Removing wmode and I get a working keyboard layout..... Once again - this only affects Firefox, clearly Flash is not the cross-browser solution I was expecting.... This problem has been floating around since early 2008 but clearly Adobe hasn't fixed it.... http://flex.mediabox.fr/index.php?showtopic=73407&mode=threaded&pid=487917
