Pop Menu Z-Index and Flash

Hello Group:
I built a menu using Pop-Menu Magic and right below it will
be a small flash movie. However, the drop downs disappear behind
the flash menu. I know I can change the Z-Index, but I tried a few
different configs and can't get the menu above. Any quick
suggestions on the Z-index settings? Or do I have to do something
different with the Flash movie export?
Thanks for the help!

Could work although it's not very effective in Safari.

Menu Drop down and flash

I have a drop down menu from my navigation and then below it
I have a flash presentation. The drop down must hide behind the
flash as it doesn't show up. Can this work? if so, how?

Eric714 posted this solution in another forum with same issue:
Running Windows 7 64-bit and drop down menus in Firefox 4.0 disappear. Fix this by disable hardware acceleration in Firefix.
Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> General -> Browsing: Disable “Use hardware acceleration when available”

DHTML Menu/Site Index and RProxy? [solved]

Both the DHTML menu and the Site index portlet do not display anything on my test Portal, which is behind WebCache in LBR mode.
Internet <--> WC in LBR <--> WC/Portal <--> DB
They both work fine on my dev Portal, which is single tier.
Internet <--> WC/Portal/DB
Both test and dev are the same versions. Could the reverse proxy be affecting these portlets? How so?

That worked!
To summarize:
-The DTML Menu portlet installed successfully but would not display anything
-We are using Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.2.0
-We were experiencing a bug in the database, see MetaLink note 367399.1
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:5895294678351954124::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,367399.1,1,1,1,helvetica
-We added the line:
execute immediate 'alter session set "_optimizer_connect_by_cost_based"=false';
immediately after the code:
htp.p(
var TREE_ITEMS_'||p_refpath||' =
in DHTML_MENU_TREE PL/SQL package
-Fixed!

Fireworks pop up menu and flash

hi,
I want to have a page layout like adobe.com. Fireworks Pop up
menu on top and flash swf file beneth it, but my Fireworks css pop
up menu is hidden by flash swf file embeded when I bring it all
together in Dreamweaver.
I guess this is because embeded files superceed the css
z-indexing but how do I overcome this isue. As I can see it can be
done at adobe.com.

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.

Need help with Pop Menu Magic I

I'm working on a site, you can see the index page here: http://www.graphicedgepro.com/gcw/index.html
What I'm attempting to do is have the horizontal menu be in a table cell that has a background and you can see through the menu buttons. I got this to work, but I need the buttons to be centered in the table cell. Right now they they start on the left side.
Is there a way to center the menu bar?
I have Pop Menu Magic II, and I downloaded the update (1.4.9) but when I try to get the menu bar into the cell, it causes the background image to repeat and there is too much space above and below the actual manu bar. I know I can set this version of this extension to center the menu, but if I cannot get it to look like the Pop Menu Magic I I'm using now, it's not going to help. I tried just putting the menu in using Cayenne as the color scheme so it would be easier to find the CSS code that I would need to change. I do not know if I mess with the CSS if I can get the bar to set into the cell the way I need it. I'm just not sure what to do to get this to be right.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Dreamweaver, Fireworks pop menu and Flash banner issue

For some unknown reasons I am not getting my Fireworks
pop-menu to show over a flash banner. It looks like it's working,
but hidden behind the flash banner

>>but hidden behind the flash banner
That's because Flash content rises to the top, so to speak.
There is a
kludge/hack using the wmode parameter but I believe it only
works in IE.
Your best bet is to redesign the page so the Flash is
separated from the
menu.

Well to show the menu it runs off opacity, Opacity is not cross browser and IE8 as you noticed will not work with it.
This menu method of a CSS menu is also not mobile friendly.
You will need the MS filters to work in older IE's

Pop-up menus and Flash image

My development page has two things on it that are conflicting
with one another. I have a flash movie, and a pop-up menu. I would
like the menu to pop over top of the flash object, but quickly
learned that certain objects naturally float up to the top -
Thread
- But, the fix on this thread won't work for what I'm trying to do.
Is there any other way to get my menu pop over the movie? I
noticed the adobe main page has its menus overtop the flash movie,
so it must be possible, somehow. . . right?
Here's my
Test Page if it
helps to see what's going on. The pop-up in question is located at
"What We Do" -> "Programs"

The key is a special Flash parameter called WMODE, short for
Window Mode.
You'll need to add this parameter to your movie, set to
transparent. The
fastest way in Dreamweaver is to select your Flash movie and,
from the
Property inspector choose Parameters. In the dialog box that
opens, add
wmode in the Parameter column and transparent under Value.
That should do
the trick!
Best - Joe

Menu bar date and time is flashing and spotlight doesn't work

Help! My menu bar date and time in top right corner suddenly started flashing and Spotlight doesn't seem to work. It would normally appear just below the date and time. Is this a known issue? 10.4.7 on a 1 GHz G4 (eMac).
Any ideas - I tried restarting with no difference.

Create a new account, name it "test" and see how your Finder and Spotlight work in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
Let us know and we'll troubleshoot this further.

Can i just show the pop-menu gif and not the links when sending to a printer?

I would like the navigation gif of my pop-menu to display
when the user prints my webpage, but not all the navigation links
below it. So far in my print.css style sheet I have the table
container to display: none; But I'd like to show the gif of the
navigation bar and not the links print below it. Is this possible -
since Fireworks creates an html with a div of a table container?
#FWTableContainer1157383077{
display: none;
I think I want it to display the navigation bar which is the
gif in the code below ( but it is inside the div of the table
container)
<img name="PopMenu_2" src="PopMenu/PopMenu.gif"
width="780" height="20" border="0" id="PopMenu" usemap="#m_PopMenu"
alt="" />
And thoughts are greatly appreciated! thanks

It could be that your signal dropped to GSM which is why it sent as a normal text. You need wi-fi, 3G or HSPDA to send as an iMessage. As does the receiver

Trying to bypass pop-up blockers on a flash site

Trying to bypass pop-up blockers on a flash site. Nothing
malicious, just going from a Flash interface to html so I can write
to a cookie. If I try to load the page in the same window, then
when you go back to the flash you are starting from the beginning
which makes it rather cumbersome. I was hoping to just load a
pop-up to avoid this.
Within the index.html page I have a javascript page loaded.
In the .js file I have
function Popupport_checkout(){
myleft=(screen.width)?(screen.width-430)/2:100;mytop=(screen.height)?(screen.height-380)/2 :100;
settings='top=' + mytop + ',left=' + myleft +
',width=430,height=380,location=no,directories=no,
menubar=no,toolbar=no,status=no,scrollbars=yes,res
izable=yes,fullscreen=no'
PopupWin=window.open('cart_checkout.htm','PopupWin ',
settings);
PopupWin.focus();}
If I have a button within flash with a --
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:Popupport_checkout()");}
--script it works fine.
But if I have a text field set to html and load in the
variable --
&BUYLINK=<a
href="javascript:Popupport_checkout()">PLACE ORDER</a>
--if you click on PLACE ORDER it doesn't work.
ANy help would be appreciated.

Go to your browser preferences and select the appropriate setting. This is for Safari:
Ciao.

Problem with PVII Pop Menu

Hello,
I have been using PVII Pop Menus and the likes for a while and didn't have a problem before, but now this is what it looks like:
http://www.usc-universal.com/
I get a long gray strip after the last entry I wanted to make (Facebook)...how do I get rid of that? All I wanted to do was have a centered pop menu.
PLEASE HELP as I need to upload everything by monday.
Thank you for the help,
Joel

Jay that is not correct. Setting a div to align to center will not center the menu on the screen. With Pop Menu Magic 2 they have added this as an option when creating with new menus. However, since it appears you are using PMM1, then you need to following these instructions:
http://www.projectseven.com/products/menusystems/pmm/css_tweaks/center_hz/index.htm
This will have you set a width to your PMM menu and then you will have to set the margins in order to center your menu horizontally on the screen.

Spry Table, Accordian, and Flash question

Is it possible to build a spry table that automatically
updates a spry accordian with different flash files? i.e. have a
table that listed four flash videos and when the table link was
clicked that flash video would appear in the accordian? Choose
another link in the table and then that flash video would appear in
the accordian. etc I know you can link jpg's and accomplish this
but I would love to do the same thing with some flv filles. Anyone
know if that is possible and how to write the link in the xml file?
thanks

[HELP] T61, red and flashing at the bottom-left corner of LCD.

I only bought this t61 one year ago. The warranty is already expired. :-(
I found this problem 2 weeks ago. Initially, just a little bit red showed at the bottom-left corner. Today, it spread to almost half of screen and flashing at same time.
Dose anybody know what problem causes this?
how to fix it?
Thanks a lot.

Configuring CDE desktop to allow true-colour and flashing

I'm attempting to set up Micromuse's Netcool product for a customer. Netcool is running on a separate Sun server and the user's desktop machine (that they will use to view Netcool event lists) is a Sun Blade 150.
We need to configure the desktop machine to allow for flashing events in the event list and also we need to change some of the event colours. When I start the Netcool desktop client s/w I get error messages about Flashing functionality not being available and something about it being unable to map colours and using Pseudocolor.
I need to know how to configure the Common Desktop Environment (CDE) to allow true color and flashing.
Thanks
Dave

Are you using the integrated graphics, in that SB150 ?
What is the current screen resolution?
Do ...
# man m64config
Keep in mind that the SB150's integrated graphics has only 4mb of video RAM.
Consequently, you will NOT get 24-bit color in any resolution higher than the default 1152x900.
Therefore, if you fell you must operate at 1280x1024 or higher,
you'll need to add another graphics card, such as the XVR100.
Glance at this other website for a longer discussion
on resolution and color depth versus framebuffer RAM:
http://pcguide.com/ref/video/index.htm
(there may be a couple of pop-ups when you first view that page -- they are advertisements.)
