However, this project is for a captive audience - our own Intranet - so I think I have some wiggle room for using something I ordinarily wouldn't. We really are only supporting Win IE6 and Safari. Thanks to everyone else for the replies. Terry, I'm gonna look through your stuff and see if I can work it into mine if that's OK. Any off-list guidance would be most appreciated. As I said above, it is an internal project, but I can credit you in some comments if you'd like! :-) - Tom Livingston Senior Multimedia Artist Media Logic www.mlinc.com ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
[WSG] Divs over Flash in Safari
Hi listers, Just thought I'd check with you guys on this. I've googled it for a few hours... Has anyone successfully implemented a drop down menu (or similar) that drops down *over* a Flash element and had it work in Safari (2.0.2)? Everything I have found indicates that it doesn't work, and it's up to Apple to fix Safari. Has anyone on the list found different? We are attempting the following: absolute positioned divs containing menu lists. Javascript showing and hiding of these divs (captive audience). When the divs are over any Flash swfs, they are messed up. TIA - Tom Livingston Senior Multimedia Artist Media Logic www.mlinc.com ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

RE: [WSG] Divs over Flash in Safari
Air New Zealand uses a system where the navigation renders an iframe behind a drop down menu, this blocks the flash as the frame takes precedence in the rendering pipeline. Can't quite remember where we got it from, but check it out @ http://www.airnz.co.nz http://www.airnz.co.nz/NR/AirNZ/includes/scripts/nav.js - A -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Zulema Sent: Friday, 11 November 2005 4:02 p.m. To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: Re: [WSG] Divs over Flash in Safari I've had success with adding this to the html code: PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent and this to the embed tag: wmode=transparent It has limitations tho: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/transparency.htm hope that helps or at least sheds some light? ciao, Zulema -- Z u l e m a O r t i z w e b d e s i g n e r email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] website : http://zoblue.com/ weblog : http://blog.zoblue.com/ browser : http://getfirefox.com/ ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help ** ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
RE: [WSG] Divs over Flash in Safari
I have successfully been able to get dropdowns to work in Safari by using the Multi-level Suckerfish Dropdowns from http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/dropdowns/ For some reason if you create the dropdown and then add an extra blank level to each item it tricks safari into displaying properly. Eg ul lia href=link.htmlTop Level/a ul lia href=link.htmlItem/a ullinbsp;/li/ul /li lia href=link.htmlItem/a ullinbsp;/li/ul /li lia href=link.htmlItem/a ullinbsp;/li/ul /li /ul /ul You can see this in action at http://www.investaustralia.gov.au/index.cfm?menuid=3D5D8296-EB77-C709-36153CFE42024159 TB ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
