It's exactly the same problem and solution as before. It's just that you're using a slightly different JavaScript syntax. Add this at the end of the params section of your swfobject js block:

Code: Select all

params.wmode = "transparent";
And this problem doesn't seem to occur in Firefox any more, so I guess Mozilla have built in some solution.

Hi,
After Roys post and not seeing what you were talking about I looked at it agin.
I did not see this in Safari, Firefox or Opera, but looking agin this time with Chrome I see what you mean, IE9 also hides the menu.
Regards,
Hopki

Well, that's funny because on my systems, the menu falls beneath the flash!! :?
(tested on Chrome, IE9, Safari).
something is wrong then!
Thanks for your post.
