I have a flash file that expands over an html page. In Firefox, the (html) links behind the transparent area of the Flash file don’t work.

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

See it here: [http://www.sandmaninteractive.com/test](http://www.sandmaninteractive.com/test)

My .js file that loads the SWF looks like this:

// JavaScript Document  
document.write(’\<div ID=“swf” style=“width:800px; height:600px; top:0px; right:0px; position:absolute;”\>’);  
document.write(’\<object classid=“clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000” codebase=“[http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0](http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0)” width=“800” height=“600” wmode=“transparent”\>’);  
document.write(’\<param name=“movie” value=“peel.swf” /\>’);  
document.write(’\<param name=“quality” value=“high” /\>’);  
document.write(’\<param name=“wmode” value=“transparent”\>’);  
document.write(’\<embed src=“peel.swf” quality=“high” pluginspage=“[http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer](http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer)” type=“application/x-shockwave-flash” width=“800” height=“600” wmode=“transparent”\>\</embed\>’);  
document.write(’\</object\>’);  
document.write(’\</div\>’);

//Thank you so much for your help
