Hiding flash from showing beneath editor

I thought I'd share this snippet in case anyone needs it. I don't have a problem on my machine, but it seems with windows flash shows beneath the editor sometimes.

Before I show the editor I put a layer over everything else in a function showWait(bool).

Adding this in works beautifully (it uses prototype)

showWait(trueOrFalse) {
  other stuff...
  if (showWait) {
    $$('object').each(function(o){o.hide();});
  } else {
    $$('object').each(function(o){o.show();});
  }
}
