Does anyone have an idea how I can get a drop down menu to appear *over* a Flash animation? The drop down menu uses CSS, and right now it appears under a flash animation, and I need to get it to appear over it.

Thanks!

I don't know much about flash, but with CSS and Javascript, you can use the z-index property to position your layers. http://www.w3schools.com/css/pr_pos_z-index.asp - http://www.w3schools.com/css/pr_pos_z-index.asp

If you're using the "embed" object, you may want to add the following values to your flash code block within the HTML page:

and

You can also use "invisible" instead of "opaque"

Hope that helps.

I dunno know.... I've got the flash issue resolved, but I have the same problem with another element....

I'm using Live Maps, and the drop down menu is appearing underneath those as well. The Live Maps is called using a <div> statement. Anyone have any ideas how I can get it to appear above the map?

the z-index property should do the trick with about anything ...
<div style="z-index:3">...

Well ... i think ...

Anyone know how to get this to work with Microsoft Live Virtual Earth (Maps)? I've tried the <div> statement using the z-index, and I still can't seem to get it to work by putting it over the map.. This is the last real hurdle I gotta get over with this navigation menu...
