Hey guys,

So we are having this issue in FF on the PC only...

We are using a javascript scroller to scroll a fixed-height div. Works great except on the youtube videos that we're embedding. In FF on the PC the videos blow past the end of the div like overflow is not set to hidden. FF/Safari on the mac look fine as well as IE on the PC.

Is there some attribute I need to add to the object tag? Or is there an issue as to how the containers are positioned?

I guess it'd be easiest to just post the link:

Its the videos in the right sidebar that we're having issues with.

Thanks for checking it out!

Joe

I know of a similar problem where drop down menu's would be obscured by flash contents(which is fixed in flash 10 BTW), could this be the cause of your problem(and if your mac is running flash 10, or some alternative it would explain the difference in results).

Good idea...I checked it out, but both our Mac and PCs have flash version 9,0,124.

Any other thoughts?

I take it back, you were correct.

I just needed to add the wmode="transparent" parameter to the object tag and the embed tag.

Thanks!!
