Hi everyone,

I have successfully created a transparent flash overlay on to my HTML page. My problem is that since my Flash stage size is 640 x 260 it is covering a large area of the page and it is covering hyperlinks underneath it.

This problem only exists in Firefox and Oprah, however, it works perefectly fine in IE.

I have tried changing the Z-index in the CSS but that doesn’t seem to make a difference for Firefox.

Can someone please share any tips and suggestions you may have on this issue?

Thanks!
