Sorry, cancel that! Have fixed it, you have to place an <iframe> directly below the absolutely positioned <div> on a lower z-index to fix <select>s showing through in IE.

In my case (not the example above) I need _javascript_ to dynamically set it's x,y,width and height, but the above will fix it.
I read that for flash in mozilla you have to set wmode=transparent.

Subject: absolute positioning, objects & inputs
http://www.engineerrecords.com/abspos.htm
This page is a quick example, it's got form inputs and a flash file with nothing done to them, then OVER THE TOP of that, is a blue absolutely positioned <div>.
In IE - The <select> appears above the <div> In Mozilla - The flash appears above the <div>
Does anyone know a decent way around this?
