FLASH: DHTML, Flash, and interactivity...

[Branden Hall]

John D... if you are out there... let me know if this is possible, please!!


The clients standard browser is IE 4.0+, which means I can set the flash

plugins mode to windowless... hence it can play nice in DHTML layers.  I did

this, it works fine, but even with the flash movies layer is set to the

uppermost, I can not interact with the movie, there is no way I can seem to

force "focus" on it.  When I put the flash movie in there as a windowed

plugin it forces its self to the top (which I know would happen) and there

is no way to push it down again.  Also, no matter what I can't seem to

reposition a layer that has Flash in it...  if its windowed or windowless...

Does anybody know either a.) How to make a flash movie "focus" while in a

layer, b.) How to reposition a layer that has flash in it.  If I can do

either then I can make this project work without a whole re-spec... TIA!!
