z-index seems to fail in FF on iframe/object combination

Hello,

I'm having difficulties to understand why the code below doesn't work.
The idea is to generate an <iframe> with a higher z-index compared to
an <object>. In Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, everything works fine,
but Firefox/Netscape seems to have problems with this construction.

Am I overlooking something ?

Wrong newsgroup, this has nothing to do with client-side scripting.
Try comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets (and prepare to be
barbecued for the Flash).

That happens to anybody every now and then - for whatever reason :-)

Follow up to comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets
