[SWFObject] SWF Object and CSS drop menus

[ZONE EGG]

Dear all,

For the Flash file covering the CSS drop down menu problem, is that what you
want to achieve, just like the new Adobe homepage?
http://www.adobe.com/
You can see the drop down menu covering the flash file.

Can we find any cludes from the adobe homepage?

Cheers,
IvaN
