I'm trying to add the "Amazon Style Drop-in Content Box" from the Dynamic Drive site into a Joomla template. I don't know Joomla very well and I've followed the tutorials. Basically, this drop in box contains a SWF file that references an FLV video. The background is transparent and I have the dropbox.js script set to only show the drop box once per browser session.
My goal is to add a "floating video" on the page.
This works perfectly in all browsers and in my HTML page that I created before attempting to place into Joomla. All files are placed in the correct directories on the web server for the Joomla site. When adding the DIV tags to the code in the HTML template, the video plays but it's on top of a wide gray box that fits the screen. Also, the box is in between the top image of the site and the menu, so the menu and body is pushed down sort of speak. The "Close" javascript feature doesn't work either. Anyone have any ideas? Does this type of dynamic content conflict with the way Joomla is set up? Thanks.
