https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43301

           Summary: media objects in iFrames showing above everything else
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://www.test1.easyprowebtools.com/
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.6
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Media Elements
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: design at paradigm77.com


I have done extensive testing on multiple computers and have confirmed this bug.
if a media element (Flash or HTML5 video) is inside of an iFrame that has the alignment set (right or left), then the media object will show above ALL other layers.
I have a drop down menu on z-index 900 and it is covered up by media elements in an iFrame.
also, for some reason if there is another "object" on the page (not in an iFrame) then it fixes the problem.
I will now give some links to show issues.

This page shows the drop down menu for the HOME button (z-index 900) being covered by the Flash object in an iFrame that is aligned to the left: http://www.test1.easyprowebtools.com/index.php?page=48

This page shows the exact same html, but with everything working fine because no alignment is set for the iFrame: http://www.test1.easyprowebtools.com/index.php?page=47

This page shows the exact same html, but with another Flash object outside the iFrame added to the page and everything works fine (regardless of iFrame alignment): http://www.test1.easyprowebtools.com/index.php?page=49

Here's some more strange behavior - when using TinyMCE, the media object covers everything regardless of alignment, but with the extra flash object added to the page outside of the iFrame, it works fine. This page shows the 2 screen shots: http://www.test1.easyprowebtools.com/index.php?page=50

I have confirmed these issues with the latest nightly build of Webkit and Safari 5.0.1, on multiple Macs running latest Snow Leopard.
The funny thing is, Google Chrome has NEVER had any of these issues on any version. How is that possible if they are using Webkit?

I have hundreds of customers using my CMS with embedded media objects using iFrames and all of their sites are now being affected and have been affected for over 2 months now (ever since Safari 5). I'm sure I'm not the only one - please fix this as soon as possible.
