So at one time I had some code that allowed java dropdown menus to overlap a Flash movie in a page but can't seem to find it. Can anyone help me out?

Have you look on your hard drive, or one of those Cd's on your desk?

i saw some funky code stuck between the couch cushions last time i was over... look there

Could it be an swf published with transparent background?
Not sure if you can actually detect mouseclicks on the html page through the trans though.

are you talking about *javascript* drop down menus? if you are then it was never possible to overlap a flash movie.

yes - you can have drop down menus over flash - all you need do is set your flash movie wmode to transparent in the source param values.

Hmm..I'm sure it can be done. Check this site out for reference.
I've looked at the source for that site and can't seem to find what allows the dropdown to happen. Hmm...

yeah - wmode only works as an active x component

the wmode doesn't work on a mac. flash really sucks on the mac sometimes.
i get sketchy results from putting layers on top of a movie.

Some people are just never happy... it gives you so much, but oh no! you want more : )
