wmode question HELP

Question

I have two problems:

1. Flash animation appears on top of pull down menu.
2. On IE when you roll the mouse over the animation there's a weird grey line that appears over it.

I used the param name="wmode" value="opaque" fof the first problem and the flashobject.js soulutions for the second. Both are common problems so I won't explain them more. The thing is that when I put this code into the flash div, it starts appearing on top of the menu again:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
var fo = new FlashObject("ivrccanim.swf", "main", "444", "354", "7", "#FFFFFF");
fo.write("mainflash");
</script>

This code make sthat weird grey line in IE go away, but when I have the codes for both problem written, on the one for th eline works.

How can I fix both problems?

PLEASE, PLEASE help, my DEADLINE is today! 😮

serg2049,> I used the param name="wmode" value="opaque" fof the> first problem By using SWFObject -- which is a great choice, by the way --you're overriding whatever attributes you added to your OBJECT andEMBED tags by hand. My guess is that your "mainflash" DIV contains theOBJECT/EMBED combo that specifies wmode. SWFObject *replaces* whatever is inside your "mainflash"DIV. With SWFObject (or another solution like it), you don't need anyOBJECT/EMBED tags at all. If you want, you can simply put text or an imageinside the DIV whose id attribute is set to "mainflash". You'll want to use SWFObject's addParam() method to specifywmode there: The SWFObject website shows this very example, and others,in its Examples heading here: http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/David StillerCo-author, Foundation Flash CS3 for Designershttp://tinyurl.com/2k29mj"Luck is the residue of good design."
