Flash Video covers Drop Down Menu. Help!

[tk421x]

I have a FLASH video (FLV) placed on a homepage, but when you mouse over the css/js menu bar, the drop-down items go behind the video. I have tried both FLV and SWF and I get the same problem.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hi!
Try to put this bit of code to your parameter settings:
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent>
I think that should help.

I just googled the problem and up popped your discussion about the same problem I was having. The long story short is that I tried using your code and it worked! I only made a couple slight modifications to your code. I used the following:
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

Thanks so much for your help. I had tried unsuccessfully to get help from the software manufacturer that produces the code for the menu buttons. Of course, the problem wasn't with their software anyway. It was with the Flash Movie I had inserted in the middle of my homepage.

Thanks again for your help.
