I have a Menu control that is linked to the web.sitemap file.  On one of my pages, I have a big flash movie.  Using FireFox, when I hover over a menu link, the dynamic menus look like they're behind the flash movie, and are only partially visible.  It works fine with IE7 though. 

Has anyone encountered this problem before?  Any suggestions?

if you're using CSS you can set the z-index of the menu to a higher value than that of the content.

.menucss

{

 z-index:100;

}

.pagecontent

{

z-index:1;

}

then set the cssclass of the menu control to cssclass="menucss" and the container for your swf to (i'm assuming you're using a div or a table)

<div class="pagecontent">your swf goes here</div>

or

<table class="pagecontent"><tr><td>swf goes here</td></tr></table> 

Thanks for the suggestion, but I can't seem to get it to work.  Does it matter that I'm using the swfObject to load my Flash movie?

I think this is either a bug in the FireFox rendering engine or with Flash Iteself. I have this same issue on one of my sites. I was able to correct it, but I cannot recall what I did. This is the site, you are welcome to viewsource and see if there was anything I did.

The flash was created using Swishzone. But I have seen this issue on a number of sites, it has nothing to do with .NET.

Thanks, but adding the ";" didn't do it.  And thanks DocLuv, but I couldn't see anything specific in your code.  I'm guessing it has something to do with the swfObject.

Any other suggestions?

In the <object> tag of your flash movie, try explicitly setting the z-index to a value less than the one of your menu.

This is a very common problem, though, and I don't remember how to fix it either :( 

Thanks for the reply but, I think that's one of the problems.  I'm not using <object> tags, I'm using a swfObject. 

Try this:

param name="wmode" value="transparent"

Try this: 

   var so = new SWFObject("movie.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100%", "7", "#336699");
   so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
   so.write("flashcontent");

This worked for me with a shockwave-flash embedded object.

THANK YOU!!!
