Hey all please help, i've searched the forums already and have not been able to find a fix.
I'm doing a site for a new minor league basketball team and they requested a dropdown menu. Im using a simple dropdown menu script that i found and maanipulated but it seems to be behind other elements on the page. I have tried selecting the html object and bringing it to the front and i've tried to even go into the html code itself and move the dropdown menu element ahead of everything else and nothing works. please any solutions?

www.saukvalleypredators.com main menu at the top, it works in FF but not IE.

Thanks

Tom helped me out with a similar problem the other week...this was his solution which worked for me:

Add to code for transparency problems with overlapping dropdown menu.

object
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />

embed
wmode="opaque"


See if this is any use to you.

Thanks Janys, I couldn't figure out where to put that snippet of code so i researched where others had this same issue. I found that using the free dhtml dropdown menu builder worked PERFECT.

Thanks.

Try this.

<object height="403" width="358" id="main" codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000">

<param value="main.swf" name="movie">

<param value="high" name="quality">

<param value="true" name="loop">

<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<embed height="403" width="358" wmode="opaque" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" loop="true" src="main.swf">

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
