Guest megavox Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I've installed CC4 and I noticed that the dynamic menus will not work in the presence of any flash files. Basically the flash file gets brought forward and the menu items are in the background making them unusable. Were you guys aware that CC4 menus will not work with any type of flash? Beware, if your using ANY flash and want to upgrade to CC4, don't because the dynamic menus wont work which is one of cc4 main selling features! BEWARE Pls feel free to post your disappointments, as maybe together we can get this major dynamic menu flash bug fixed ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robsta Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 You only need to make the z-index higher than the flash. No biggie, try searching in Google if you are not sure about z-index. You blame CubeCart, but it's a flash issue. So go speak with Macromedia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest megavox Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 tks robsta but I have found a fix, on my own, that doesn't require z-indexes - a much simpler fix. Edit layout.css look for .li-nav .ul-nav add entry position: fixed; this should be added to cc4 next release, as it does fix this flash bug - no need to blame macromedia this should have been a cc fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hennaboy Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Id say this is also more a skin related issue which you needed to resolve for your site. Nothing to do with CC4's programming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest megavox Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Martin found this resolutions also: My old solution can cause rendering issues in Safari and Opera. "Apparently (according to Google, and Adobe's own site source code), the generally accepted way to allow this function is to add: <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> to your flash's OBJECT tag, and add: wmode="transparent" to the EMBED tag " Z-indexes will probably work also...

kinetic Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 with drop down menus and flash you need to make the flash param opaque not transparent this forces flash object to be on the same layer as the browser window transparent makes it "float" above everything and messing with z indexes wont do jack wmode = opaque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest minnich Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I have the same issue, but with flash image rotator on a product page. It will NOT show the component. I have a separate web page with the exact same code and it works fine, but as soon as I add it to the product html (with java includes in the index.tpl file) you get the component, but no images. Why is flash dead on CC4? Same code worked great on 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
