Hey all,

I am using the two-level menu from http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/dropdowns/

My problem is for the site I'll be placing this script on there is an embedded flash. The menu pops-up behind the flash. It will work with z-index and position set to fixed but of course in IE that doesn't work. Anyone have any ideas on how to get around this issue? JavaScript & CSS are weak points of mine, be gentle :bemused:

The menu code is displayed on the website above. Thanks greatly for any help.

Thanks to the sitepoint forums (http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?t=334098) - if you simply add {wmode="transparent"} to the embed tag it will work :D

[EDIT]Spoke too soon, IE... DAMN YOU! :glare:

[EDIT AGAIN]Just got to add "<param name="wmode" value="transparent">" for IE to work :D

Another lesson. Another reason why I don't like flash :p
