z-indexed wmode=transparent SWF blocking HREF links in FF & Safari

Asked by somnamblst in Adobe Flash, JavaScript

Tags: Adobe, Flash, CS3, actionscript javascript

I have a 300x274 pixel SWF in a z-indexed div. It has a visible area of 300x100 on frame1 of an mc that on rollover goes to frame2 where the visible content is 300x274. The bottom 174 pixels overlay HTML links. In IE these links are clickable. In Safari & FF the expandable transparent area of the SWF, prevents clicks on the links, and there is no cursor. I was thinking that flash_resize.js or some other actionscript to javascript with CSS overflow hidden communication might help.

My AS

box_mc.onRelease = function():Void
{
getURL("javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/flash/click/');");
getURL("http://www.yahoo.com","_blank");
};

box_mc.onRollOver = function():Void
{
getURL("javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/flash/rollover/');");
box_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
};

box_mc.onRollOut = function():Void
{
box_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
};

I was thinking that on frame1 of box_mc the div called flash which has a z-index of 1, would be 300 pixels by 100 pixels and that on frame2 Flash communicate via javascript that the div should be 300 x 274.
