- Jon Daley commented on Fix YouTube iFrame Overlay and Z-Index Issues: Thanks! I was adding the wmode parameter manually, and it still wasn't working. I finally figured out that it was tinyMCE/Wordpress that didn't count wmode as a valid parameter and was removing it. Argh. But, the jQuery solution works. I thought I was trying to save time, by just doing it on the one problem video and then switch to javascript later... Hopefully this method will continue to work in later/more broken versions of IE. Each new version has new ways of breaking the old broken behavior... 04/26/2012
