Placing Player Window On Top

[JamesCousineau]

How do we have the Player window appear on top of anything else on the
page?

For example:

Vertical YouTube bar is on right side of page.
Left side of page has another YouTube video in full size.

When someone clicks on a video link in the YouTube vertical bar it
appears under the left side video.

I have done this before using javascript and "param and wmode", but
how do to this in Ajax?

Javascript code to achieve this:

in object
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />

embed at end
wmode="opaque" /

Actually, I think you'll have to put the wmode on the full-sized
player to the left side. Then the player should just float to the
top. Of course, take that with a grain of salt because it's tough to
tell you exactly what to do without actually seeing the page in
question in action. If you could provide a link, that would make it
much easier!

What do you mean? Ajax is a technique of Javascript, if you're using
Ajax, then you're using Javascript so you should be all set.

As a side note, usually when you're messing with stacking objects in
this sense you can apply a higher z-index to the containing object and
that should force the object to float to the "top" so to speak.
