Question

How to prevent Javascript Menu from getting hidden under Flash Video (SWFObject ).

I am using Open Flash Chart and the chart is displaying fine in my php shoppping cart, but my javascript menu is getting hidden behind the Flash Chart.

How to correct this problem?

Here is my script code:

---

<script type="text/javascript">

swfobject.embedSWF(
  "open-flash-chart.swf", "Dashboard_Chart",
  "800", "400", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf",
  {"data-file":"ofc-chart.php"} );

</script>

UPDATE (Solved):

I found the solution.

Here is my new code which works and the menu shows up fine.

---

<script type="text/javascript">
    var flashvars = {};
    var params = {};
    params.wmode = "opaque";
    var attributes = {};
    swfobject.embedSWF("../swf/open-flash-chart.swf", "Dashboard_Chart", "760", "300", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", {"data-file":"ofc-chart.php"}, flashvars, params, attributes );

</script>

Answer 1

Try setting the wmode parameter to transparent

swfobject.embedSWF("open-flash-chart.swf", "Dashboard_Chart","800", "400", "9.0.0",
   "expressInstall.swf",
   {"data-file":"ofc-chart.php"},
   {"wmode":"transparent"}
);
