There are some flash objects on our website.  There's also a dhtml drop down menu that pops out and goes underneath the flash.  When it does, it's not visible, or clickable.  Why?

Basically if you have SWmenuFree or Pro it uses a DHTML menu systems that will not overlay flash. Most of these are like this. This can be counteracted in IE by adding the wmode parammeter where you call your flash movie. If you have access to the flash, set the wmode parameter (where you call your flash) and this will allow the menu to go over the top in IE only. i.e. The only other way (Per SWonline.biz) is a very messy hack that puts the menu on an ILayer. However, there has not been much success implementing this to work in all browsers.

Anyone know if this is still the case? Has anyone found a solution to the disappearing menu issue?
