Hey there - I’m wondering if Flash movies can be controlled via CSS using z-index? In other words, can you layer them? It seems like you cannot and Flash is always on top. What if there are two flash movies on a page - which is on top?

What if you wanted to put an absolute positioned DIV on top of a flash movie - can you do that? Again, seems like not, but I want to be sure.

Thanks
