Flash – it keeps getting in my way!

Ever had the problem where you have a Flash element on your site and for some reason it hides your other elements on the page? Not sure? Well, here is an example.

I had a drop down menu that was sitting just above a simple rotating image highlight [driven by Flash]. The trouble was, every time I used the drop down menu, it would hide behind the Flash element below. Certainly not my original plan in the design.

An easy fix though as it happens…

Just had to add the following to the Flash embed.

[php]<param name="wmode" value="transparent">[/php]
