  • DSL Autofocus

  • I have come across this question often enough especially with people who are new to DSL cameras. Why can’t they select the focusing point with their camera.

If you have a Div/Layer overlapping a Flash object layer, the Flash object layer would take precedence and be visible. The Div/Layer which you placed above it by specifying a higher z-index value would not have helped it from being hidden by the Flash object. At least not with IE browser.

This can be frustrating especially if you  have constructed a drop down menu that extends over to a flash movie. To rectify this problem, you need to add wmode tag to the Flash movie codes as such:
1) <param name=”wmode” value=”opaque” />
2) <embed> … wmode=”opaque” … </embed>

This works fine for most recent browsers.
