I have some Flash banner code that displays normally if I embed it in a widget, but if I try to make it float in a fixed position, it initially displays and floats int he fixed position while the page is loading, but once the entire page is loaded it gets hidden by some layer.

What do I need to be changing so that it will appear?

Thanks


a style="display:scroll;fixed;bottom:15px"

Possibly that you need to increase the z-value in the style to something higher, like 99999:

style="z-value:99999; ...."

For the rest, you example of style make absolutely no sense to me and I don't understand what you mean with "floating to a fixed position". An element can be floating or be in a fixed position but it cannot be both at the same time.

If possible, you should also provide the link to your web site so that people can take a look at it and have a better understanding.

You can see the problem here:

It's worse in Firefox than in Explorer.

First, I think that they are z-index of at least 10000 in the Artister template code, so you should try to increase its z-index to something higher, like 999999.

Second, if this doesn't work, try putting its code at the very beginning, just after the <body> tag; so it should even be before the header.

Here are some tests that I've made with values of z-index of 0 and 999999 and before and after the header:

Sorry, my tests have been made with 99999 instead of 999999.
