Hi guys, i’m Hi guys I am having a problem regarding SWF that overlap each others.

I have 2 SWF files - \*\*[COLOR=Red]A[/COLOR] \*\*and [COLOR=Blue] **B** [/COLOR]. Both are embeded on the same html page.

[COLOR=Red] **A** [/COLOR] is a button menu that, when rolled over a drop-down menu will appears, and disappears when the user rolled out of the menu.  
**[COLOR=Blue]B[/COLOR]** is just a squarish banner that will animate when user rollover it.

**[COLOR=Red]A[/COLOR]**'s resolution is much larger and it is placed above [COLOR=Blue] **B** [/COLOR] so, when the drop-down menu appears, it will covers [COLOR=Blue] **B** [/COLOR] completely.

The problem i’m facing is, eventhough when the drop-down menu isn’t there, [COLOR=Blue] **B** [/COLOR] will not have the animated effects when being rolleover.  
As if **[COLOR=Red]A[/COLOR]** is blocking [COLOR=Blue] **B** [/COLOR] from being accessed.

The problem only appears on Firefox, while works perfectly in IE (where [COLOR=Blue] **B** [/COLOR] can be accessed when **[COLOR=Red]A[/COLOR]**'s drop-down menu isn’t there).

Is there a way to rectify this problem?  
Many thanks in advance!
