Hello,
Quick problem (Hopfully). I’m trying to create a flash dropdown menu that overlaps down a little bit onto the html content below it. The problem I am having is that the flash content is not overlapping its table onto the content below it. The flash menu is 770X115 pixels and is nested in a table of the same size. The other content is in a different table below it.
Is that the problem? Do I have to use something else? like a div?
I have <param name=“wmode” value=“transparent”> in the object tag
And I also have
wmode=“transparent” in the embed tag.
What am I doing wrong here?
Many thanks!

not posting the rest of your code
Sorry about that. I had assumed that it was just that I couldn’t use tables or something like that.
The table code is:
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td class="eltop"><table width="770" height="115" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="91" colspan="7"><script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0','width','770','height','130','title','menu','src','menu','quality','high','wmode','transparent','pluginspage','http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash','movie','menu' ); //end AC code

I don’t think it’s possible to do without using div’s… Could be wrong, but I was able to get it to work with the help of this thread:
*another important note… I wasn’t publishing my .swf large enough. My swf was being published the size of the collapsed menu and not the fully expanded one.
Final working code is:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
#holder {
width: 770px;
height: 115px;
position: relative;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
#swf {
width: 770px;
height: 115px;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1000;
}
-->
</style>
<script language="JavaScript" src="src/scripts.js"></script>
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
