Sorry for some reason my post didnt come through right....

I had to add <param name="wmode" value="opaque"> to the "params" list in the HTML output on line 1039 of flashnode.module

and also wmode="opaque" to that same line but within the "embed src=" tag...

The reason for this was to avoid conflicts with my dropdown menus on my homepage.

Would it be possible to add "wmode" as an option with a selector list (window, opaque, transparent) under the Basic Options section when creating a flash node?

Thanks guys and girls.

As an alternative...

I added the (requested) parameter capability to flash node tonight, and I just uploaded a new version of flash node 6 to HEAD. If you use HEAD (and run flash node update 6001 if you already installed an earlier version 6 either from HEAD or from the official release), and then run this in conjunction with the 6.x-1.x-dev version of SWF Tools, then you can pass an arbitrary string of parameters by putting something like menu=true allowfullscreen=false play=false in the Parameters field under Advanced flash node options.

I tested it a bit tonight and it seems fine - I was able to switch menus etc on and off at will!

This would address the issue you have above I think, and requires fewer settings on the form than having every possible parameter available in a drop down / check box etc. For most users they would probably never alter the settings anyway?

Committed and included in latest release of flash node 6. I don't plan to port this back to flash node 5.

cheers!

Change this line (number: 1139) if you want window mode

<?php

$output = t('<div class="flashnode"><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0" width="!width" height="!height" id="myMovieName"><param name="wmode" value="opaque" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="movie" value="!filepath" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="flashvars" value="!flashvars" /><param name="base" value="!base" /><embed src="!filepath" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="true" quality="high" width="!width" height="!height" flashvars="!flashvars" name="myMovieName" align="" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" base="!base" wmode="opaque" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></object></div>',
