Objects on top of Movies
A while ago I read this topic about placing objects on top of QuickTime movies in iWeb:
Quicktime not layering behind others
In iWeb an object appears to be on top, but after publishing the page the object disappears behind the QuickTime movie.
Have a look at these images below. On the left a Flash Video, on the right a QuickTime movie. You'll see 2 images, the blue-ish one is the (selected) image on the page, the red-ish one when dragged.
When displayed in a browserwindow it's normal behaviour that QuickTime movies are on the front. But it seems strange when working in iWeb. Despair galore!
So what's the solution? Use a Flash Video. Besides that, you have more features. See my iFrame section with samples.
See this page where a butterfly image is positioned above a HTML Snippet with a Flash Video.
