FIX: Menu Hidden Behind Flash Object

I’m sure most of us have been through this once before…we add a flash object to our website and our navigation menu gets hidden behind it (mainly in older versions of IE). Not fun if you’re in a hurry and can’t remember the exact code you’re supposed to write to fix that annoying bug! So I figured I would post a solution so you’ll know what to do in that type of situation.

Here’s the fix (the capitalized stuff):

<object width="600" height="450">
<PARAM WMODE="OPAQUE" VALUE="TRANSPARENT"></PARAM>
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Dh55ywjaLaY?version=3&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
<embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/Dh55ywjaLaY?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="600" height="338" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" WMODE="TRANSPARENT"></embed>
</object>

Hope this helps!
