Re: Z-Index on IE8 with tag #71082 kayakerboyMember francishunger, did you solve this problem? I am having this same issue with an active x object on a page (an excel spreadsheet, owc11), but I haven’t figured out how to solve it, because there is no embed tag… It works just fine in IE6 (no z-index problem), but not in IE7 or IE8 where the object places itself floating above dropdown menus and popups. So I am curious on how it can be solved. /L CSS-Tricks is powered by DigitalOcean.
