I'm having a problem getting a css multi-level menu to behave the way it ought to. In short it's expanding under the flash animation that sits next to it. It obviously needs to expand over it.
See the page here: *removed for confidentiality issues*

I tried playing with the z-index of the ul containing the nav. I set it at 99999. No dice. I'm not sure what's eluding me. I've done this before successfully but the ul was nested in a container div.

Any tips for me out there?

Thanks folks!

webfairy...

Try changing your Flash Object to this...

<object width="750" height="183" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" data="flash/banniereAccueil.swf"><param name="base" value="flash/"/></object>

Notice I put the wmode="transparent" in the object attributes. That should work. Using firebug I added that to your code and it seemed to work fine.

*Note - This was only tested in Firefox for I do not have Firebug installed on anyother browser as of yet.

Right you are, jriddle!

Thanks a million.
I tested it in IE6 and 7 and it works like a charm. I do have firebug installed. I should start making use of it!

Thanks again!
