I've created a chart using views_charts module but my menus (created by nice menu a kind of javascript menu) renders behind it. I know that I should add some code like
to a html file which presents swf files, But would you guide me how can I solve it in views charts module? Should I change codes in open flash charts codes or swfobject.js file?

Not to be pointing fingers here, but I do believe this is the NiceMenu module's issue - their divs are being overlapped by flash objects. If you put any other flash object there (video, etc) - the same thing will happen.

Not sure how much they can do about it, but they should better able to advise/help.

Thank you.

There may be more to this than I initially thought. Re-opening for further review.

The issue is fixed with the wmode parameter:

I can't reckon where to set this via the FlashObject call.

I suspect this is something that needs to be implemented by the swfobject API module, I opened a ticket about this there.
http://drupal.org/node/518132
I think it is a problem for all flash implemented in drupal. It might be a good direction to set wmode by default in params and flashvars as opaque and allow users to config it to the other values for special circumstances.......

I am actually thinking to move away from SWFObject to jquery_tools, for embedding Flash. SWFObject has been nothing but a headache.

This problem is now fixed in CVS. Release coming soon.

Also charts_graphs (the underlying engine for views_charts) now uses SWFTools and it is possible to embed flash with SWFObject2, Jquery Tools and/or with no javascript. See more in charts_graphs documentation: http://drupal.org/node/681928
