I have installed Norlist in a site I'm building and the fly-outs are appearing behind a Flash slideshow on the home page in both Firefox and IE. The site is on a test server at http://000.artinet.co.uk/. Does anyone know if there's there a way to make Norlist stay in front of the slideshow?

Fly-outs behind content
Re: Fly-outs behind content
A well known problem overlaying anything above Flash and SELECT boxes. They're not really part of the pages but "float" on top of it. Try this:
Norlist hiding some content when active - simple way.
Put something like <span id="fader"> ... </span> around your problem area.
Then add this to the bottom of listmenuactivate.js
This should hide the problem area when the menu is active and restore it when the menu is inactive.

Code: Select all
function nlsetviz(id, viz){if(document.getElementById(id))document.getElementById(id).style.visibility = viz;}
fsmAddEvent(listMenu, 'show', function(){nlsetviz('fader', 'hidden');}, 1);
fsmAddEvent(listMenu, 'hide', function(){nlsetviz('fader', 'visible');}, 1);

Hi Norman
That certainly works, but it makes the slideshow disappear from the page intermittently, I'm pretty certain the client won't put up with their slideshow flashing on and off
Any ideas?

Re: Fly-outs behind content
That's the best you can do with NorList.
Email me if you want to use another menu that doesn't intrude into the content area (like Accordion or Collapso) or want a refund.

That's a shame, I'll have to get back to the client, hopefully he'll go for something else.
For reference I tried adding the parameter <PARAM NAME="WMode" VALUE="Transparent"> to the movie's embed code, but it only helps in IE, not in Firefox.

Re: Fly-outs behind content
NorList uses Freestyle Menu from www.twinhelix.com. There's a support forum there but I thnk you'll find the same answer.
