Stooney Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 not quite php, but im sure someone knows. I have a flash object which has content 'overflowing' from its dimensions, specifically a dropdown menu. Rather than using empty space in the flash object for the drop down, I want the dropdown's to 'overflow' out of the specified object dimensions onto the actual web page. Hope it makes sense. I just dunno what tags or whatever i would need to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I don't think that is possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonMariner Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Flash sits within its own stage (width and hieght) - it can't allow its own content to flow outside that stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bqallover Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Interesting notion - one I was thinking about recently too.As the previous posters say, I don't think it's possible [i]per se[/i]However, one approach might be to make your flash object/stage larger than it's contents, large enough to contain a dropped-down menu. Then give it a transparent background. Then use CSS to place HTML on top of the transparent flash area. I don't know if this works and even if it did there are overheads from having transparency, but it's certainly how I'd go about it...
