Member	mgigax-jcwhelan - 4/13/2009 8:53:26 PM Video file overlapping menus Trying to determine why my video files are on top of and obscuring my drop down menus. And what I can do to fix them. Example: http://iigp.jcwhelan.com/getdoc/9a9b88c4-7d76-468b-b00b-f2bc818bd207/Centrality-of-Fear.aspx


Member	sasdaman - 4/14/2009 5:15:19 AM RE:Video file overlapping menus This is most lilkely a design/layout issue. Try looking at your CSS code and see if you can play with the z-index property to effectively have the menus overlap the media content. Cheers, Sahus Pilwal


Member	mgigax-jcwhelan - 4/14/2009 7:46:47 PM RE:Video file overlapping menus We have tried the Z-index and it works for all content on the page except the videos. The videos still play over top of the menus. Thanks for the suggestion.

RE:Video file overlapping menus

Thanks
Problem is still there. However, I moved the videos to the right column on the page and the menus over on that side do no overlap the videos -- there are no drop down menus on that side.
I've done some research andd this is a common problem. Video is always displayed on top regardless of z-index. Flash video works if you assign it transparency. I have not found any other solution. We are OK until the site grows and we need drop down menus on the right side.
