overlay opaque div over youtube iframe

Information from the Official Adobe site about this issue

The issue is when you embed a youtube link:

https://www.youtube.com/embed/kRvL6K8SEgY

in an iFrame, the default wmode is windowed which essentially gives it a z-index greater then everything else and it will overlay over anything.

Try appending this GET parameter to your URL:

wmode=opaque

like so:

https://www.youtube.com/embed/kRvL6K8SEgY?wmode=opaque

Make sure its the first parameter in the URL. Other parameters must go after

In the iframe tag:

Example:

<iframe class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="520" height="330" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/NWHfY_lvKIQ?wmode=opaque" frameborder="0"></iframe>
