copied!<p><strong>Update:</strong> I knew it was either one or the other regarding wmode, I picked the wrong one. Shouldn't have answered a question suffering from sleep deprivation. I've checked it now and wmode set to transparent <em>is</em> what you want. It lets you put HTML elements above Flash objects.</p> <p>Secondly, embed Flash the standards friendly way, and use <a href="http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/" rel="noreferrer">swfobject</a>.</p> <p>Try layering a brightly coloured div over your Flash first for test. Also, perhaps move the image code above the Flash and see how that goes.</p> <p>Finally, <strong>all that's needed to get your code to work</strong>, as mentioned above by K Prime, is <strong>setting wmode to transparent in your embed tag as well</strong>.</p> <pre><code><div style="position:absolute; top:0px; z-index:-2000;"> <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000" id="obj1" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" border="0" width="176" height="146"> <param name="movie" value="/Images/WordOfLife.swf" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <param name="quality" value="High" /> <param name="menu" value="false" /> <embed src="/Images/WordOfLife.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="obj1" wmode="transparent" menu="false" width="176" height="146" /> </object> </div> <div style="position:absolute; top:0px; z-index:2000;"> <img src="Logo.gif" alt="" /> </div> </code></pre>
