In FF2 everything works fine. I'll attach a simple html page demonstrating the flaw. In FF3 flash overlaps the red bars at the top and bottom of the page. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Browse to a page using Flash and html elements using position:fixed. Actual Results: Flash overlaps the html element using position:fixed Expected Results: Html element should be rendered on top of flash. I've tested this on multiple distributions and 2 computers, and it is still present in the CVS version. I haven't tested on Windows though.

This is just because position:fixed doesn't have a widget anymore. position:absolute always had this issue.

We're in the process of removing support for plugins (bug 1677160) and bug 1687239 has removed the relevant Layout code, so this bug is irrelevant now.
