I don't think you can. flash always sits on top. Look through this forum for a similar post though cause i think someone may have posted a link to a work-around.....

Plus, i think you could repsoduce the slide in effect using either the drag layer behaviour, or an extension from project seven...

Can't reproduce a slide effect with a drag behavior. But you sure can with
PVII or Flevooware stuff....

i had plum forgotten flevooware had one. the DW drag layer needs an actual
onClick, huh? I never used it after that "check every menu and button" phase
you go through with new software.
Or is that just me...?

Thanks Murray - I've fixed that for one example page.

I'm guessing that in an ideal world, I shouldn't really go down that route for
obvious accesibility reasons tho'? Although I guess the target audience of the
client would be reasonable sized companies - so presume the majority of them
would be using IW. But then again, I guess I should never presume.

So here's the www.handprintwebdesign.co.uk/Collin...ew/layout22.htm

But it might be a better plan to put the flash above the menus on the page,

Personally, I think it's always a good idea to move the two so that there is
no conflict.

Ta - I think moving the drop downs below the flash is going to be the way to
go. And maybe even move the logo and title down as well, and leave the top part
as a narrower band just with the top right navigation.

Also need to play around more with some simple flash examples - I'm thinking
maybe with a single image much larger than the stage, that pans across - a bit
less fussy. And maybe incorporate some photos of the places on the maps.
