Another template to look at is 'generic' which used a javascript drop-down menu. I prefer the CSS method that ruebenwurzel pointed you to but wanted to give you a second example.

I don't have technical knowledge on how to do this myself but I spotted the following a while back that may help:

This really isn't a WB question as you are getting into CSS, javascript, and flash and you should research those areas to get your issue resolved.

Having said that...I would guess if you look into CSS Z-index you may find a solution so that the menu is a higher Z-index than the flash.

The Z-Index didnt work out, so i tried out a few things, and found a solution.

1. Add the following parameter to the OBJECT tag:

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

2. Add the following parameter to the EMBED tag:

wmode="transparent"



This Will Work With All Browsers

Now i just have to figure out how to make FCKEditor do that by default, shoudnt take 2 long to figure out though :)
