Hi there
I have added a large flash component to my site directly under a dynamic menu (Opencube). Unfortunately by default the drop-down’s in the menu move behind the flash on internet explorer (okay on Safari).

The fix for this is to publish the Flash file as “Windowless Transparent” however I don’t have the option in the Flash Plugin (or do I?) and I can’t get any flash to run in EE without the plugin.

Can anyone help?

Many Thanks
Matt

Not as is…you would have to edit the plugin PHP file directly.

It’s fairly easy, if you choose to do so.  I’d post some code but I don’t want to step on the plugin writer’s toes.

Thanks very much for the point in the right direction. I’ll have a fiddle with it this morning and see if I can do it. I’ guessing that in the code of the plugin I’ll find all the sort of stuff that I’d see when I to publish via html - hopefully I should be able to add the correct setting there.

If not I’ll ask the plugin developer. Fingers crossed.
