Looked for a solution all over but no luck

http://tinyurl.com/yhwgx4y

the drop down menu on the top right is obstructed by the flash on the centre page.

when you go to a category page, you can see that the drop down is actually about 5 items more but on the homepage you don't see the latter due to the flash.

any solutions?

Thanks

I was so glad to see this post tonight. I struggled with this problem forever! So, Let me help you fix it:
HTML Code:
          <script type="text/javascript">
            AC_FL_RunContent( "codebase","http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0","width","620","height","230","src","flash/movie1","quality","high","pluginspage","http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash","movie","flash/movie1","wmode","transparent"); //end AC code
        </script>
          <noscript>
          <object height="620" width="230" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000">
            <param value="flash/movie1.swf" name="movie">
            <param value="high" name="quality">
            <param value="transparent" name="wmode">
            <param value="false" name="menu">
            <embed height="620" width="230" menu="false" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" quality="high" src="flash/movie1.swf">
          </object>
          </noscript>
What ended up being the problem was the "wmode" parameter. When embeding your flash Item, you need to make sure that you specify the wmode transparent in the code. Try copying the pasting this script in your html and see what happens. I hope this helps

Edit:

After checking your websites code out, I noted that you did not specify the wmode in the AC_FL link. Check that out
