If I use pageear and if there is any flash(another animation file) in the page at that time pageear page curl animation effect coming below/behind of that flash animation which looks odd. How to bring pageear page curl animation on the flash animation(it will be top of all animation of a page)?

Can you provide a link? for us to see.

By now try to add this parameter to your other flash animation movie and check to see if it will works.

          <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />

or

       <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />

Let us know.

More information needed: Operating system and browser and how is the other flash movie added to the page (other module, within a theme, you include it yourself...).

As just danreb mention the problem comes probably from the other movie.

When you include a flash movie with "wmode" set to "window" or not set that parameter at all, which comes on the default wmode window applied, that movie would be render, on most browser, on top of any other content that overlaps with it, no matter if the other content is over the movie. The correct wmode values to let other content overlap that flash movie in their correct positions are "transparent" if you need any tranparency on your flash movie or "opaque" if that movie does not need tranparency. As it is almost sure it has wmode window applied now so transparency seems not needed in that flash movie, wmode opaque would be the correct one.

You can see a sample of the problem here:

Sorry its an intranet site. OS is windows XP, browser is IE 6.0.

Actullay I made a swf file using other software and put that swf file into a block using (fckeditors flash button) and put that block into a header section of drupal's front page (not the other pages) and the movie size is quite big half portion of a browser page.

When I mouse over the pageear corner animation, pagecurl/page effect going behind that swf file movie.

Could you please let me know where can I pest that specified code?

or

The link that you have provided the pagecurl animation is not covering the clock flash file. My case the page curl effect is covering the page swf file.

Anyway I will test it an if you have any other method appreciate if you can share.
Thanks for you quick reply and time.

Another idea: Can I reduce the pagecurl animation size? (right now when i mouse over the animation effect is coming almost half of the page, How can i make it very little size animation effect? May be it will come 10 percent of page.

You can test in the links I provided. ;)

If you have a widescreen and your browser is maximized the page curl will no go onto the clock flash movie, but how about if you reduce the width of your browser window and test to open the pageear that way? Doing so I think you can see and confirm the problem (in version with wmode window, you'll see page curl going under the clock, in version wmode opaque you'll see page curl opening over the clock).

Pageear is not prepared to be other different size than the one provided.

Let me see fckeditor to try to find how you can change the parameter. I'll tell you as soon as possible.

I have tried on fckeditor demo site.

If your fckeditor has a first button "Source", clicking on it you can swap between design and source view.

If you add your flash movie with flash button in design view and after you are finished with your edition of that content just click that "Source" button, you will be presented with the code for that content. The code responsable for including the flash movie will be something like this:

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="/path_to_your_movie/your_movie.swf" play="true" loop="true" menu="true"></embed>

Note: /path_to_your_movie/your_movie.swf is going to be something different in your case, just corresponding to your flash movie, don't change that.

you only have to include the wmode parameter in embed tag. In that example will result in:

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="/path_to_your_movie/your_movie.swf" play="true" loop="true" menu="true" wmode="opaque"></embed>

After that, you save your changes.

Hope this help.
