Couldn't see anything in regard to this on google and as the Adobe site itself does it I thought I would point it out. On Linux it seems there is a stacking issue with Flash and other page elements. For some reason Flash seems to overlay all other elements, which is fine until you have another element that moves like a drop down list. I've tested this in Firefox, Opera and Konqueror.

I come across this quite often and it makes things look messy and links inaccessible. It's something Flash developers might want to take into consideration, just a heads up.

I've attached an example from the creators themselves so I make sense ;)

Hello

Have you seen any work arounds for this? I remember reading something about putting wmode="transparent" in your embedding code to solve something similar to this, but the reason why + the what for escapes me this morning.
