I would love to do the dynamic menus in flash. I never thought to put the flash into a layer. Interesting idea. See though drop down menus could create some very cool effects, especially since you can animate of the menu.

Try putting a flash movie in the layer. It will go over the form fields. It will even (in IE) allow transparency. You can even see the webpage behind/through the menu. Now, to do it right, you'll need a full dhtml/flash/cf solution for menus. I haven't seen one yet. Currently, I'm waiting on my new employer to buy Flash MX. When I get, it I plan on developing one. If anyone has beat me to this, let me know. I would like to see what you came up with.

I am creating dynamic javascript to control a set of drop down menus. My problem arises when I have a page with form input fields. Whenever there are form input fields on the page the layers containing the menuitems display behind the form input elements. Naturally I want the drop down layers to appear above the form elements but I don't really know how. Any ideas?
