Unfortunately I can't post a link, but I'll ty to explain my problem see if anyone can help.

I have a top nav based on suckerfish dropdowns, and under that a small flash movie. In Firefox the flash move sits in front of the dropdown, - hiding the 2nd and 3rd level links. It's fine in IE.

Any ideas as to why it's happening, and how to get the nav to sit on top of the flash?

I *think* setting <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> fixes this if I remember correctly.

Cheers, but that fixed it in IE but not in firefox bizarely

Sleepingfish reckons he got it working.

Suckerfish menu and SIFR

hmm... the plot thickens... I must have something wrong somewhere then

Does this make any difference?

add:

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

AND add:

wmode="transparent"

to the EMBED tag
