Mootools Tooltip and sIFR

[Eli.]

Hey Guys,
I'm using a mootools for tooltip and sIFR for titles in my website.
the problem arises when a text that is required to have a tooltip is above the sIFR title, so the tooltip is under the flash elements.

Now I know that flash elements are embedded into the document, and thus they are not effected by z-index what-so-ever.
With that in mind, how can I overcome the obstacle?

If an answer for that already been given on the forums, please link me to it, I couldn't find any suitable answer relating this subject.

thanks

You need to pass the Flash application a wmode parameter with a value of either transparent or opaque. Below is an example.

<object … data="flash.swf">
	<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
</object>
