I am redoing a site www.reliancecafe.com . If you click on the Feedback button it will take you to the site I am working on. In IE the movie shows up correctly where the pictures are behind the company logo. However in Firefox the flash movie is blocking the photo. Any ideas on how to remedy this situation? Thanks

Try the following code. You should avoid using spaces in file and folder names, and when you do use them, the spaces should be replaced with "%20" in paths pointing to them. Also keep in mind that IDs can never contain spaces.

Cary,
Whatever was different in the code worked so thank you! I have another flash I am going to put on this site so I will have to compare the two codes to see the difference (unless you want to tell me
Again, thank you!

You had <param name="wmode" value="transparent">.
This param tag code affects IE, but not Firefox, which relies on the code in the embed tag. There you would have wmode="transparent">
Using a value of "opaque" with wmode works better across browsers than using "transparent".
