Hey guys,

I am trying to figure out the best way to place a floating ad box over flash content, as used in some of the following examples:

- http://www.zshare.net/video/8334913953f5728c
- http://www.videoweed.com/file/4cf5b47e92d52

I was able to put together a very basic system using layers, but it doesn't work well on some browsers. Any advice as far as what might be the best way to replicate this concept, or whether there might be some existing code out there I could use?

Thanks for all the help in advance gang! :)

First, the video needs the parameter wmode="transparent", and then you basically need to play with the z-indexes.

Thanks righteous_trespasser! I came to realize this after hiring a guy out of Pakistan to get the job done! Ha! Things one learns along the way.

Thanks for all the help either way.
