how to have a DV infront of a flash object?

Hi there, I have a fairly basic website im making, with about 5 DIVs. My menu is made using flash, but I need it to stay behind a content DIV when the browser window is resized.

It worked fine when my menu was simple a static image, but when converted to a flash file, it always sits infront of the content DIV.

Ive played with z-indexes but nothing has worked.

Any ideas?

The website can be found here:
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.gsr-evo-club.net/uploads/gilly/phat/index.html">http://www.gsr-evo-club.net/uploads/gil ... index.html</a><!-- m -->

And the CSS file:
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.gsr-evo-club.net/uploads/gilly/phat/layout.cssI'm">http://www.gsr-evo-club.net/uploads/gil ... out.cssI'm</a><!-- m --> under the impression that this is a common problem.

See <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.webreference.com/dhtml/diner/seethru/indexNEW.html">http://www.webreference.com/dhtml/diner ... exNEW.html</a><!-- m -->

it deals primarily with forms, but it gets on to objects etc later on.

I like the color scheme by the way!As of this writing I don't think a browser will paint any contents overlapping the object,applet,embed or <select> element.

z-index will work if you wre trying to position <object> over each other ,but for any other type html elements they have to go under the elements

object,applet,embed or <select>

Work around is to hide the elements that will not allow overlapping of other content.But that may not work in your casethanks for that info guys, I guess there isnt really any solution, you just need to design pages with that in mind.

Well now I know!

Anyway, my solution I come up with is to simply split my Flash file into two, a wider top half, and a thinner bottom half.

That should do the trick.]

Cheers
