Description Uri David Akavia 2007-09-16 05:30:18 UTC

Hi.
I'll try to explain the description.
Go to www.92y.org

They have a pull-down menu, that appears when your mouse goes over one of the tabs  (by interest, by program, by age...)

This site also has a flash movie.

In Firefox on Windows, the flash movie is rendered under the menu (sent more to the back, as PowerPoint terminology would say).

In Linux, the flash movie is rendered above the menus, so you can't see the menu. It seems like you can still click, but you can't see what you're clicking on.

Requested behavoir:
In a way similar to Windows, have the menu rendered above (in front) the flash movie.

When does this happen:
Every time I go to this site.

Yeah, this depends on a bug in Firefox, which will be fixed with Firefox 3. After that we just need to make the required changes to the Swfdec plugin, and it all should just work.

I'll leave this bug open until we did that.
