Author JS Show-Hide Layers and Flash

I have a Web page created in DW with a hidden layer that shows when you mouse
over a logo graphic. The layer contains a Flash movie that's a nav menu with
animated rollovers. To keep the layer showing while you are moving the mouse
around the navlayer, the navlayer also has JS show/hide layers.

It works fine on the PC in IE and AOL, but not on the Mac with IE or Safari. I
suspect it's a Flash issue, since the Flash replaced a bunch of .gif slices
with JS rollovers that still works fine on the same Mac browsers.

Since I replaced the gifs with Flash, the layer gets stuck showing when you
roll the mouse pointer out. Links below the layer also show through the Flash,
and the thing comes apart in pieces. Does Flash not like being on a show/hide
layer, or have I made a mistake in the Flash or the page code?

If anyone knows anything about this, or can take a look at the pages and
suggest anything for me, I'd appreciate it.
