Is that not the best way ? Mike, unfortunately claiming "wmode" is the only way to get the drop-downs to come over flash; I just wanted you to be aware that there are accessibility concerns (see the links in my last post) when using "wmode". Secondly, it's documented that "wmode" causes performance/compatibility issues with flash especially when you claim it to be "transparent". Thus, unless you need to reveal a background of the table behind flash it is recommended that you use "wmode='opaque' versus transparent. It'll give you the same results and you will suffer from less performance issues and it'll work under Linux boxes where as "transparent" will not (the last time I checked). - Nate P.S. If accessibility is a large concern you may want to pull the flash movie out of the general layout and place it into a pop-up window or something so you do not have to claim "wmode" at all. ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
