Fixing flash objects covering div layers

July 8th, 2008

Since I was working on a site recently where a flash movie overlapped my div submenus, I googled and discovered the following extra parameters to add to the <object> and <embed> tags.

Adding the following syntax to your html code should fix the issue nicely.

Within the <object> open/close tags, enter the following extra parameter:
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

Also, modify the embed tag to include an extra attribute.
<embed wmode="transparent" ... >

Hope that helps someone else out there in need.

Its been awhile since I published anything in my blog. I thought I would start up again by adding some recent work.

A few days ago, one of my friends wanted me to try and convert a real photo into a cartoon version. Below is my pencil sketch version scanned in.

OttoKeep v3

I started up my auto maintenance project site, ottokeep.com, once again. Due to the fact, that I wanted to learn a new PHP framework called CodeIgniter, my journey down a road full of long hours and no sleep has begun.

Learning .NET by day and doing PHP at night is more difficult than I realized. I hope, at my old age, I can still learn a thing or two — and retain it. ha!
