Flash file is covering my drop down menu

please help. I've created a horizontal drop down navigation
in fireworks 8 and imported it into dreamweaver mx - i also have a
flash file just under my navigation. my problem is that when i view
my html document my my flash file is covering up my drop down menu.
Any advice??? Thanks in advance!

All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so
to speak,
including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and
Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There
is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but
if you can be
confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+, then you can
use the Flash
wmode parameter (however, Safari does not support this
properly!).

DWT file not updating with drop-down menu edits rom Fireworks

Aughh! I am almost done with my website, when I go back to
Fireworks and add a couple new tabs on a drop-down menu. I update
the DWT file in Dreamweaver, but one of two things happens: either
the update simply doesn't "take", or all of the <body>
section is mysteriously deleted from the DWT file. If I preview the
Fireworks template (from Fireworks), everything is as it should be,
but not when I preview in Dreamweaver. Not sure if this is a
Fireworks issue or a Dreamweaver so I've posted in both. No one in
the FIreworks forum has come up with any suggestions yet.
What the hell?
Thanks in advance for the help,
Brian

>so I've posted in both
Can't see anything here over at the newsgroup - did you
forget or not post
in such a way it doesn't show?
Please provide a URL.

Drop down menu in front of Flash

I've read dozens of posts on this topics and the answers are always the same: add this tag to the parameter section of your Flash code: <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> and add this to your embed tag: mode="transparent". But it simply doesn't work in IE. Please view www.beidun.com to see.
Any other suggestions at all? I'm ready to tear my hair out.

On the <embed> tag, you have this:
<embed src="entry.swf" mode="transparent" quality="high"...
It should be this:
<embed src="entry.swf" wmode="transparent" quality="high"...
Now look for the AC code, right above your object tag. It starts like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase'...
insert this directly before the 'width':
'wmode','opaque',
This should take care of the problem so that the swf file is behind the drop-down menu.
Now you have another problem with the drop-down menu not working at all in IE6. This is a separate problem from the swf file problem we just resolved. I looked at your code and it is a classic example why we design with css instead of tables and tables nested inside tables. It would take someone hours to wade through all that clutter and figure out where to begin. This is not a complicated layout; my advice is to redesign the page using css.

Problems with flash transparent drop down menu over html in some browsers

Hi everyone... this is my first post and it's about an issue
that's causing me a few problems.
I'm currently designing/ building my company's web site, the
test page be viewed here: www.musflashtv.com/test.htm
1) This layout contains an embeded flash movie (.swf) with a
transparent background, this is the main navigation.
The flash navigation has a drop down menu that animates down
and covers the html page (containing links) below.
The problem is that in most current browsers such as; Firefox
2.0.05 (links below template don't work), Netscape 8.1.3
(navigation drop down and links don't work) and Opera 9.10 (links
below template don't work), any links just below the 'invisible'
transparent area coverd by the navigation can't be clicked 'through
the flash file'. The exception is IE 7.0, everything is fine there.
(it hasn't been tested in any mac browsers though).
Because the area below the navigation on
www.kitachi.info/work is one large dummy jpeg file, the link below
would be a much better example to look at.
http://www.musflashtv.com/shows/ind...tlight-Sessions
The flash navigation is embedded in the html (tlp) template
file using the code below and aligned using an external style
(.css) sheet, this html code not only embeds the flash movie but it
also tells the browser to display it's background and as
transparent. The flash movie is embedded in a layer that sits above
the table.
3) The flash embed code:
<object
classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0"
name="shows-navigation-tranparent" width="851" height="300"
align="top" class="flash-navigation"
id="shows-navigation-tranparent">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie"
value="flash/navigation-tranparent.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />
<param name="SCALE" value="exactfit" />
<embed src="flash/navigation-tranparent.swf" width="851"
height="300" align="top" quality="high" wmode="transparent"
bgcolor="#000000" name="navigation-tranparent"
allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="
http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
scale="exactfit" />
</object>
Does anybody know of any code that can solve this problem or
know a different way of creating a flash navigation with a drop
menu that can be embeded over html?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated especially as
this issue is holding back progress in a big way.
Thanks in advance guys!
Adie

It's IE-only behaviour as a result of changes Microsoft made
last
year to their browser, regarding how Active Content (Flash,
Quicktime etc)
is handled, after losing a high profile court case.

Flash Drop Down Menu

Hi all
I am learning ActionScript 2.0 for about 6 months and I have
created a flash based website. My question is how to allow a drop
down menu to animate outside of a Shockwave files boundaries.
I have seen Flash menus that do this and also I have
seen some banner ads that allow animation to display outside of the
swf file.
Is there any tutorials or information out there that I can
learn, or could somebody give me an idea of what to do. I
understand how to use the Menu component and how to create a
regular drop down menu within the boundaries of a swf file
javono
www.javono.com

you can't visibly animate flash objects outside the stage
boundaries. you can appear to do so using div tags so that's what
you should check.

Flash Drop Down Menu Help Needed

I am using this set-up for a drop-down menu:
http://www.flash-menu.net/flash_drop_down_menu/flash_drop_down_menu_component.htm
I'm usign the vertical setup: http://flash-menu.net/flash_drop_down_menu/download_vertical_drop_down_menu_free.htm
I want to put it both on a static html page (for those who do not have FLASH installed), as well as the FLASH site.
This is the site: http://www.miltongordonussenate.com/flash/index.html
I want to put this menu on both the Campaign page, AND the Links page.
I have the seperate parts- the swf file, the html file, and the jscript file. I don't know if I am uploading the seperate files in the wrong place, or if I am just completely off base.
Can someone help me with this, please?

Ok, I see several people have looked, but no one has answered.
Is there a better way to do what I want to do? Any help is appreciated!

The "New Tab" function does not work either from the tab bar, the File drop down menu or using CTRL+T

How do I get the VISA resource drop down menu to be auto populated in my stand alone application (exe file)?

Hi all,
Here's a hopefully simple question.
I am building an application (i.e. an exe file) from a simple program which use VISA to read and write to a RS-232 com port. When I run it before building the application everything works fine and the VISA resource control, which is a drop down menu, is automatically populated with available com ports. When I run the application on a computer without LabVIEW installed nothing appears in this window. I have made an installer which includes NI LabVIEW Rutime Engine 8.5, NI Measurement & Automation Explorer 4.3 and NI-DAQmx 8.6.1. Is there anything else I need to include? Any specific settings I need to do when I build the exe-file?
I use LabVIEW 8.5.
Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

DAQmx is only for NI DAQ cards so I'm not sure why you installed that. The driver for VISA applications is NI-VISA (surprise!)
Add the NI-VISA run-time to your installer.

I don't have pdf documents listed as a file type in the applications drop down menu so I cannot manage the handling of these file types. How do I get the pdf file recognised?

I don't have pdf documents listed as a file type in the drop down applications menu, so cannot handle these. How do I add a file type?

After a little Googling, it looks like B.Media is a content management system from Wave Corporation used for making catalogs. Doubtful you'd be able to license it at less than an enterprise level.

While using a drop-down menu i.e. File, edit, image, or even when saving as and choosing the file type; the list appears and I am able to highlight what i want but cannot click on anything.

While using a drop-down menu i.e. File, edit, image, or even when saving as and choosing the file type; the list appears and I am able to highlight what i want but cannot click on anything. This is becoming incredibly frustrating. It happens at random time and a restart of the computer is all that helps, then with out any notice it starts to do this again. Mac Book Pro i7 2.2 16 GB 1333 Ram, (2) 450GB SSD both internal to machine. At this point I am losing file because I am unable to save in the file type I need. Does anyone out there know how to solve this issue?
Thanks

I haven't been unify photoshop much in the past month, but I did try your suggestion and it seemed to work for a while. Today when i went to save a document the same thing happened: click on file>save at this point I can not click on save even though it is highlighted. Tryed to use command s that brings up the save dialogue box, but when I try to change file type I again cannot select it from the drop down menu.

Drop-down Menu to Open URL for File Download

I am using Adobe Captivate 5.5 and was wondering if it is possible to create a drop-down menu that can be used to open different URLs for file downloads, kind of like the Attachments button Presenter has. Captivate seems to have a dropdown widget available but I can't tell if this would work for this purpose.

Hi Theo
You can use any composition to create a menu with setting for show target on rollover and then link targets to specific pages.

I'm having the same issue. I got a new PC, insalled Acrobat X pro and when I right click on an Office file, I could not combine or convert Office files to PDF. I upgraded to Acrobat XI and still no fix. I triled to convert or combine office files to PDF from within Acrobat and I get an error message saying "Acrobat does not support the conversion of one or more of your files to PDF. Please remove these files or go to Settings and choose the PDF Portfolio option".
I've tried to convert or combine Office 2003, 2007, 2010 and 2013 files and none work. The weird thing is that the option shows up for Excel .csv files. Even more werid is that I have the PDF tabs showing in the Office applications.
I contacted Adobe support via chat and they were unable to help. I was directed here, so any help would be great.
Thanks.
