Flex s-control masks Javascript popups

We have a Flex widget in an s-control on the Contact Detail page. It appears that the z-order of the Iframe for the s-control is wrong, as it will mask any other JS popups from the standard SF pages, such as hover details and address editors (see pic).


Does anyone have any suggestions?

The fix here was to add a param arg to the embed and object tags:

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
and
wmode="transparent"

Is that your own Scontrol or somebody else's?  If it's yours you may be able to tweak its z-order, but good luck with that in IE anyway.

It's my own. I'm just using the standard flex wrapper from the SF docs. I've thought about trying the javascript-based SWFObject wrapper, so maybe that will help.

I hear you about IE- if MS would implement the web standards consistently, every web developer in the world's productivity would increase by 20%!
