Drop Down Menus hiding behind video

[Paul Dankers]

I am having a problem that the drop down menus are hiding behind the featured video on the home page in Internet Explorer 11.0.9600.16518. It displays correctly in Google, Safari & Firefox. Thank you for any help you can provide! ~Paul

Never mind. I found the fix on your main page. Anyone looking for the answer, here is what I found:

YouTube and Drop-Down Menus
Sometimes drop-down menus need a bit of help being visible on top of video, particularly video from YouTube. That’s especially troublesome considering it is the largest video service in the world. But thankfully you can have your drop-downs appear on top of your video by following these instructions:
Once you’ve found the video you’d like to use on YouTube, select share and then the embed button.
Next copy the embed code that should look something like this:
<iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/YbGgA2lIDjc?rel=0&#8243; frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

Paste this embed code in the spot where you’d like your video to be visible.
Lastly we need to edit the embed code just a bit. The src of this iframe ends in

rel=0

We want to remove that and replace it with this:

wmode=transparent

1
<iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/YbGgA2lIDjc?wmode=transparent&#8221; frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

That should allow your drop-down menus to appear over video from YouTube at last.
