Hi,

I got a problem. I have a flash movie and I need to set a link over it so
that the user is gonna be linked to a page after he pressed on the movie
(which looks like a link then). I thought, 'oh let's just place a <div>
over it and link it to wherever'. i did do that and it works fine in
Firefox but it does not in IE. Why ever, my code:

<a href="http://www.example.com/"><div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute;
left:490px; top:30px; width:400px; height:50px; z-index:1;"> </div></a>

that's an area that exactly covers the flash movie.... ;)
Does anyone know another approach?
The movie is inserted like:

<td colspan="7"><embed src="banner_sound.swf" width="400" height="44"
onbeforeactivate="onPrepaidBannerClicked();return false;"></td>

is there a way to link it diffrent? i already tried just to put an <a> link
over it, didn't work...

Thank you!
