Hi All

Hope someone can help, the attached file is a nav bar I have on my site, the problem I am having is that the menu is appearing behind the video.

Can anyone help me sort this, I have tried several formats and they all do the same?

Thanks

Graham

If you mean IE, that browser has a problem properly placing the <embed> tag properly cause it doesn't use the DOM correctly like all the other more modern browsers do. It's been so long since I've looked at this I've forgotten the fix but I'll look around.

Try this:
Add the following setting(s) to the Flash HTML code:
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

Also add this to the <embed> tag
wmode="transparent"
