Positioning Text over Flash

Is there a way to position text over a flash movie on a web page? I've been
playing around with using the z-index, but when I position the text over the
flash animation the text is not visible.

Thanks!

All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so to speak,
including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but if you can be
confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+, then you can use the Flash
wmode parameter.

Here's a link showing how to do that....

Yep, that did it!

Looks like it's good for IE4 or higher in windows, and for Mac IE5.

Thanks!!!
