Hi, I have been using DNN for a little while but am in no way an expert!
We had a web site previously (www.csi-europe.com) which is hard coded. It turns out that google cannot crawl any of the content as it is not constructed correctly. I have been tranferring the content to DNN. I have created the skin in artisteer 5. We used a silverlight player for the videos on the current site. I know now that i cannot place them directly into DNN as some of the <divs> it creates conflict with DNN.
I decided as a work around to embed them using an iframe which is linking to a seperate external html page.
I hope this is making sense!!
I am now finding that the menu subitems drop down behind the video. I have played around a little with z-index's in the <divs> in the html page and this appears to make no difference. I have also played around with the z index in the css for the skin. This just breaks the existing menu and doesnt affect the sub items.
Has anyone seen this issue or something similar? I havent logged a support ticket yet.. if no-one has any suggestions i will do so and let you know what they suggest.
Any help would be appreciated!!!

Hi There
if silverlight is anything like flash then you may need to set an option on the silverlight player to be transparent. in flash its a parameter wmode=transparent.
you dont have to do anything as messy as using an iframe to link to external content. can you write a little module to display the videos? modules can be super easy to create.

Thanks, Quintin
Had this issue with a flash installed in html editor for DNN when installed in top pane.
Inserted wmode="transparent" in source code of flash and fixed submenu issue behind flash.

thank you both for your help,
the following code fixed the silverlight issue, the flash suggestion didnt work but gave me a string to query in google!
Find:
<object id="silverlight" data="data:application/x-silverlight," type="application/x-silverlight-2-b1" width="100%" height="100%" >
<param name="source" value="ClientBin/YourSilverlight.xap"/>
Add:
<param name="background" value="transparent" />
<param name="windowless" value="true" />
</object>
Sucess!!

I am having the same (similar) issue. In my case I have a RadMenu Telerik control that is a cascading menu resident on the sidebar1 pane. When I expand it the background becomes transparent and the information in the DNN text/html control (resident in the content pane) underneath becomes visible too. The cascading menu (telerik control) is suppose to overlay on top of the DNN control but the artisteer skin seems to make the background of the telerik control tansparent and make everything vieweable.
Note: If I use the standard DNN minimalextrpphy skin it works fine.
