Dear all,

Could you please help me with the following.

I created a banner in flash and inserted it into the webpage, but the
problem is my html navigational bar has a drop down menu which now doesn't
show?

It seems that the flash banner lays on top of the nav.bar?
I tried everything but nothing seems to work could somebody please help with
this.

thank you in advance.
Regards,
Rene

All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so to speak,
including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but if you can be
confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+ (Windows only), then you can
use the Flash
wmode parameter. It doesn't work in all browsers (NN4) or platforms (Windows
only) but it's implemented in the latest netscapes:
