SWFObject and WMODE

Hi kirupa fans,

I made a swf and implemented it on a html page using SWFObject; the swf works fine in Internet Explorer and Firefox. Above the swf I have a divlayer with a <ul><li> type menu. Some of the links have a dropdown submenu.

Now, when I open a dropdown, it disappears behind the swf in firefox, but it’s still clickable. The disappearing dropdown-issue I can solve by adding wmode=transparent, but then the swf is NOT clickable in firefox anymore.
I’ve googled my brains out for this and a lot of times I came across the text '‘it’s a firefox bug and at the moment unsolveable’, but I finf this hard to believe.

Does anyone here has a solution for this? What I would like is AND the swf to stay clickable AND the dropdown falls in front of the swf.

Thanks in advance!
