Hi, please have a look here. http://thenovakagency.com.au/maximum-borrowing-capacity-calculator-how-much-can-i-borrow/ Navigation hides behind flash file viewed via iframe (I cannot download it as calculations are done via side DB). I tried to embed iframes in divs with lower z-index but it doesnt seem to work. Same problem is with youtube videos uploaded as a url via featured media. I.e. http://learn.thenovakagency.com.au/animated-lectures-2/ news & events->social media
Please advise what can be done as its a real bummer to figure out... And CU3ER works like a charm being flash-based... Beats me...
Navigation does not work over flash files in IE and Chrome.

Hey,
I wasn't able to reproduce your problem in Chrome, IE9 or Firefox - what browser and which version are you running? Did you solve the issue?Posted 1 year ago # -
Hi I've the latest versions on IE and Chrome (later is glitchy on macs as well). Please have a look here http://ellinayukhina.com/chrome.png and here http://ellinayukhina.com/IE.png to see what happens with dropdowns behind iframed flash.
Same happens when its a youtube like embedded via featured media in the theme.
Thank you!

Hey,
check this, I can't help you any further - all I did was Google it. I have no way of checking your flash file..Posted 1 year ago # -
Hi, it happens over _any_ flash file apart from CU3ER. I tried it on pages and I will keep on trying but my concern is featured video items. When I add youtube videos to portfolio (or posts or pages for that matter) via add featured media drop-downs hide behind the menu, I've no control over that... Its not just when I manually embed it via iframes.
Its a _serious issue_, its not about my flash, its any flash, so its a template menu flaw, plz have a further look into it.
In past I mended it with z-indexes but they don't work with Brightbox. What u sent me dates back to 2005 and hasnt been working reliably with modern browsers for a while. Sorry for that.Here's how it looks with YouTube videos in IE and Chrome

and originals are here http://learn.thenovakagency.com.au/animated-lectures-2/
its just a portfolio aggregated page where all items were added as they would i.e. via 'add featured media' on individual portfolio items
such as this http://learn.thenovakagency.com.au/portfolio-item/example-of-lecture-7/ where the problem is exactly the same.
Its working here http://www.kriesi.at/themes/brightbox/portfolio-item/flash-video-swf-by-adobe/ because its a CU3ER, does it mean that I can only do it via CU3ER? And can never use iframes with flash?
That would be disappointment...Posted 1 year ago # -
Hey,
it's not a menu issue but a browser/flash embed issue which is quite popular and discussed in some threads already (i.e. here: http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/mega-menu-spreads-behind-video ). We don't want to include this hack in the theme files because it's something the wordpress core team needs to take care of.Posted 1 year ago # -
Awesome! Worked like a charm!
U're amazing as usual, thank a ton!
(and sorry for saying its a menu issue, I keep forgetting its a CMS not a regular php or html).

Ooopsie, it worked well over videos embedded via featured media but not over videos embedded via iframes. Is there a hack for that or shall I do everything via featured media?
Still happy for a half-solution! I can figure out what to do but my clients need to have it simple.
Thank u!Posted 1 year ago # -
Reason being for using iframe is that its not a simple flash file I need to show, its a calculator that links to the database, etc. Cant just grab it with url...

I'm not aware of a css attribute which affects iframes. You can try to apply z-index values to the main menu but I doubt this will help.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Z-index was my first attempt. Beats me... Ive another theme here http://listings.thenovakagency.com.au/ where drop-down works just fine over an accordion slider in an iframe. Same is with Brightbox menu over simple html or php in an iframe, but a jquerry slider in an iframe is still glitchy... So it has to bea combo of the menu flash and iframes, not just iframes or flash or javascript, but a combo... Really puzzling...
Posted 1 year ago # -
I think the combination flash / iframe doesn't work because the flash app (displayed via iframe) misses the opaque parameter too...
Posted 1 year ago # -
I see... so it work with your hack for featured media because u add the opaque parameter to all flash files embedded on the page... But there's no way to add this parameter for all iframes?
Heh... I'll look into embedding with divs and javascipt...
Thank u...Posted 1 year ago # -
Yes - iframes display external content and there's no way to affect the embedded content (otherwise your css/js code could cause conflicts with the external services, etc.). You can only influence the iframe itself (change its size, location, etc.).
Posted 1 year ago # -
Oh, I understand that, but then I can't affect embedded content from youtube also, and yet the hack works for youtube videos.
Its not just iframes. When I embed my calculators with div, the issue is still the same...
And when I add ?wmode=opaque to the end of the url i.e. <object type="text/html" data="http://ges.afconline.com.au/ammortisation-g7.asp?clientid=1062?wmode=opaque" this works just fine with youtube files (i.e. in iframes and flash from youtube or div and flash from youtube) WITHOUT your hack in function.php ... but is not working on my urls....
I'm beginning to think its this particular content that I'm trying to embed that's of an issue... It has several layered flash files and some dynamic content so I think i will simply push it to below the dropdown... as I dont think there's a simple cure...
Thank you.Posted 1 year ago # -
Yes but i.e. in your example the service provides a opaque parameter (see ?wmode=opaque ). It's service depentent. If youtube accepts "?wmode=opaque" and returns the right code that's cool, if the service doesn't support "?wmode=opaque" the flash object won't use the opaque mode. My hack isn't required in this case because the embed code is generated with the opaque parameter by default because of the php/asp parameter....
Posted 1 year ago # -
Sure... so its not just flash and iframe... Its the 'service' of the source and may be the source itself and god knows what else... And Firefox allows for the menu to be top although its not floating but strange popping from behind, and IE and Chrome dont... Some mac doesnt and some Unix doesnt either...
Stuff it, not worth it :)
But thank you :) I'll just push the damned thing down :)Posted 1 year ago # -
This is the oldie that I embedded with iframe http://www.thenovakagency.com/stampDuty.shtml
its flash with php as far as I can tell, works just fine with your theme too (just tied) via iframe. The hack obviously works here. So apologies for wasting ur time, its an issue with the pages I'm trying to embed. I just need to work around it.
Thank u again!

Hi,
I just bought Habitat theme and i have the same issue with Flash video and menu that goes behind.
Unfortunatly, the integration code has changed : now it's an iframe and the hack here : http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/mega-menu-spreads-behind-video does not work.
i'm not enough strong to fix the issue with iframe integration :( Can someone help me ? is there an automatic way to add "?wmode=opaque" at the end of iframe source url?
Thank you !

Please try to add following code to functions.php:
function add_video_wmode_transparent($html, $url, $attr) { if ( strpos( $html, "<embed src=" ) !== false ) { return str_replace('</param><embed', '</param><param name="wmode" value="opaque"></param><embed wmode="opaque" ', $html); } elseif ( strpos ( $html, 'feature=oembed' ) !== false ) { return str_replace( 'feature=oembed', 'feature=oembed&wmode=opaque', $html ); } else { return $html; } } add_filter( 'embed_oembed_html', 'add_video_wmode_transparent', 10, 3);Posted 11 months ago #
