What do you mean with "destroy the layer"? I want to move the flash from

x=100px y=100px to y=200px y=200px for example (with JavaScript). I'm doing

this by setting the document.name_of_the_layer.style.left and

document.name_of_the_layer.style.top position of the layer where I put the

movie into. That works on IE 4/5(WIN) and NS4(WIN/MAC) but not on IE(Mac).

There the layer moves to the new position, but the embed still remains on

the original position. Only when you're resizing the window, IE moves it to

the new position. 


Seems there is no workaround out there for that problem, isn't it?
