Re: FLASH: displaying dHTML layers in front of a Flash movie

[Marc Pidoux]

Believe me, i realy tried it. I check all the resources i could find even the

Netscape technical notes...nothing, nothing, nothing.


A flash movie in a layer will always be on the top if using Netscape.


The only "work around" should be by creating a special effect in flash to be on

the top of another flash movie. For exemple, if you have in a flash file a

static image and another one (under it) with a text moving, the text will appear

for a short period on the top...but it is very ugly to see it.


If you feel like seing this "work around", check :

Maybe somebody from Macromedia can tell use why this "work around" is happening

and maybe what to do to controle it...


Cheers


Marc
