Page menu appears underneath page content in IE - please help
 

Hi Everyone!

I can't reproduce this issue in Firefox of Safari for Mac, but my client is seeing this problem on her Windows machine in IE.

The page menus are dropping down underneath the page content on her front page. More specifically, there is an embedded YouTube video on that page which overlaps the page menus as they drop down.

The page in question is here: http://catewhite.com/wordpress/

Can anyone else reproduce this problem?

Can anyone suggest a way to solve it?

Thanks!

Just a shot but try adding wmode="opaque" to the embed tag for the YouTube video

Hi,
I have the same problem, my drop down menu is hiding behind a photo gallery.
Not on Mac, only IE. Did you find a solution yet?

Regards,

Ah yes, I did. I had to add a bit to the code. The solution is here:

I'm copying it here for perpetuity.

Add the following code after the Object tag

Code:

---

<param name="WMode" value="transparent"></param>

---

And add the following code just before the type=”application/x-shockwave-flash”

Code:

---

wmode="transparent"

---

Together it should look something like this:

Code:

---

<object width="300" height="220"><param name="WMode" value="transparent"></param><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NnMgg4nygSY&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
<embed wmode="transparent" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/NnMgg4nygSY&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="300" height="220"></embed></object>
