Another situation could be – we used a block script and the page contains a flash object and when the script is called the flash object could not be hide.
dhtml flash problem What to do to put an HTML element on top of a Flash object
I faced these situations many times and searched web for a solution. Long ago I found a solution which worked for me to solve these problems and I am still using it.

The solution

If you are using an object tag, then add the following param in it.

<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />

If you are using an embed tag, then use the following attribute in it.

wmode="transparent"

I don’t know what these codes do :) as I am not a flash expert, but they work. If anyone knows anything more about these codes then please share with us.
