Tag And A Flash Movie... How Do You Keep The Div Above The Flash?
For example lets say you have a drop down menu in a div tag, and a flash movie underneath.... any swf for example... if u click the drop down menu, it hides behind the flash movie, I think because the flash is layered.. is there any way around this???
Thanks in advance!
Sorry, let me just make it clear, I don't want to change the positions, I want them the way they are except I want whats in the <div> above the flash... is that possible?

Stupid answers.
What you need is CSS. I saw this problem on many poor made sites. You need to asign the folowing css rule to the divs in question (the menu divs) div.menu{ z-index: 200;}
Now that number is way off, you can assign the flash z-index:1 and for the div z-index: 2. You just have to have a bigger number for what you want on top.

Even if you were able to somehow get your div to render, I doubt it would do so across different browsers, let alone be functional enough to use as a menu.
I'm not sure what your layout looks like, but you might want to consider changing your embed method. Geoff Stearns' swf object is probably the best out there, it provides a ton of flexibility in terms of positioning the flash exactly where you want it:

Use the source code to change the positions
I also have noted this problem. it is a limitation with browsers that render dropdown list behind Flash even if it is nested inside a <div> tag on top of the Flash.
So you may change your mind on your layout or use a custom HTML menu (list of hyperlinks) instead of <input> dropdown menu.
I didn't know about CSS though, so perhaps that solves the problem :-)
