Take a look at the following page:

Notice that there is a flash banner below the navigation. The navigation expands with a 2nd level dropdown, and that dropdown overlaps the flash. I've solved it using z-indexes, so it works in firefox and opera. In IE7, the dropdown appears infront of the flash, but you can't select it. The mouse will focus on the flash instead, and the navigation is lost. According to my partner, it works in IE6... can you guys confirm that?
Right now I'm using the swfobject method to add the flash. I've already tried the following
- Object only method (my initial attempt)
- Object + embed (when it didn't work in IE7)
- Embed only (when object+embed didn't work)
I've also tried using a flash that is not "clickable", so that isn't the problem either.
If any of you know how to solve this problem, please enlighten me... its driving me nuts! Oh, if you take a look at the CSS, let me first apologise for the mess it is in
