| 2 questions:
1. How to you make a flash movie on a tranparent background?
2. How can you make a flash drop down menu (Component v2) drop down on top of
text in the HTML where it resides? I've tried layers with CSS and I can't get
it to work properly.

| 1. To get a transparent.swf - the option is in the export html options.
2. If you're working with CSS - add a <div> tag with the flash embedded file.

| ahhhh, ok on question #1.
with regard to question 2, I tried that every which way you can imagine. I
even played with the z-index. The problem and maybe this is a bug, when I set
the wmode param to "transparent" (before you just told me about the export
option), the menu would drop down over html text, but where ever there was
text, my flash drop down menu could not get focus. I know, I know this is
opposite of what you normally hear..but that is the truth. I wouldn't lie to
ya..
Thanks for the heads up bmdesign.

| Try using the z-index property. Setting the z-ibdex declares what element will
be on top when there is overlap. The basic idea is pretty straightforward; a
larger number will place the element closer to you than an element with a
smaller number. So, f you place your background on z-index: 0 and placed your
drop-down menu layer at z-index: 1 (or higher) When the menu drops down it
should appear in front of the background layer.
