JQuery dialogs and embedded Flash movies

Just hit a snag with a jQuery dialog overlay which was supposed to display over an embedded Flash file — whatever the z-index of the dialog, it always appeared behind the movie (and flickered insanely which was doubly annoying). Thankfully, it’s easy to fix this problem with the addition of an extra parameter in your embed code:

<embed … wmode=”transparent” />
