[Bug 49613] Re: Adobe Flash does not support WMODE

[Alexander Jones]

I've updated the bug title to reflect the actual bug, not the symptoms.

** Summary changed:

- Flash content always on top of web pages
+ Adobe Flash does not support WMODE

** Description changed:

- The Adobe Flash plugin does not support the transparent "wmode" used by
- many websites.
+ The Adobe Flash plugin does not support the "wmode" option used by many
+ websites.
  
  As a result, all Flash is drawn on top of other content, often obscuring
  major parts of web pages and making it unusable.
  
  *There is unfortunately nothing we can do.* If you want this fixed, vote for the bug on Adobe's bug tracker.

  Test case:
  
  http://www.ishares.com/home.jhtml
  
  Try to operate the menus at left or top. The boxes are obscured by the
  Flash content.
