I don't know how you put one over it, I think that might be to do with the embed properties, opf the player.

I'd suggest putting the flash in a div and when you want something over it set it's visibility (the div's) to not visible.

hope that's some help.

I have to put the Flash in the HtML not in <div> is not allowed for this project

[mad_A]

what about <layer> or <span>?
If you aren't allowed to use basic html it is fairly limited what you can do!

it's a banner, so the Flashbanner has to placed into the basic HTML and the layer on top can be in a div. but the layer is underneath the movie. it is something that flash does.

Ahh, right, I finally twig what you mean.
Well, anything you can do in html you can do in flash. So why not use flash for whatever it is you want to stick above flash?

[gomo]

it is not my idea of having a good time either but the customer wants it like that .
You know the story about customer......

I know the way. Sadly I don't know any way of getting a layer over the flash. If I come up with one I'll let you know.
