Thanks for such a great module,... it's easy to use and it's work fine,.. but it's disturbing the drop down menu or other css layer,.. maybe it's like a wmode mode on flash content,...

Never mind,... I just found how to fix it,...
just add
wmode=\"transparent\"
after

return _16;
},getSWFHTML:function(){
var _19="";
if(navigator.plugins&&navigator.mimeTypes&&navigator.mimeTypes.length){
if(this.getAttribute("doExpressInstall")){this.addVariable("MMplayerType","PlugIn");}
_19="<embed

on cumulus.js

Thanks panji for your solution. I'll check it out and let you know if we change the js file. As you know cumulus.js is based on SWFObject. Maybe we should report the author the problem you've described. Perhaps someone had the same problem and a new version was released.

Change to active.

Edit: We don't have to change the cumulus.js. There's a solution where we can do it within our module... As soon as I've tested the solution I'll upload a patch/ new release for 5.x. Lut4rp can release 6.x. We'll let you know. Thanks.

The patch needs to be rewritten to match the Drupal coding standards.
bjacob - I understand you read the Code standards doc and then made this patch, but the standard you have used for string concatenation is valid for Drupal 7.x onwards. For Drupal 6 and earlier you need to use the old standard. Refer to http://drupal.org/node/30785 and its comments.

6.x-1.2 still does not work as expected -- Administration Menu dropdown still appeared behind the cloud.

However, the fix in cumulus.js as described in #2 above has solved it.

The z-index issues might depend on your browser. But I will surely look into this.

Doesn't appear to be fixed in Internet Explorer 7. I think wmode must bet set in params.

I did what #2 suggested then also added
<param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" /> into line 70 after
_19+="<param name=\"movie\" value=\""+this.getAttribute("swf")+"\" />

This worked for me.

This really is a meta issue that heavily depends on browsers and JS. I am setting this to fixed because it imho it can't be fixed by the module it self.
