Description
Love the new admin bar, but I'm noticing a minor problem in Chrome and a slightly larger problem in IE7. I looked for a ticket already reporting the problem and couldn't find one — if I missed something I apologize.
In Chrome, the admin bar goes behind any flash, such as videos and some ads (see attached screenshot). For the record, this doesn't seem to happen with wp.com's admin bar.
In IE7, the submenus appear way to the right on hover, so there's no way to get to them (also attached screenshot).

I'd be surprised if we missed the IE7 bug.
The flash issue is another story. We take oEmbed HTML at face value, which means they're typically missing wmode=transparent. That causes this. Very little we can do there.

Thanks Nacin, defining wmode fixed the Chrome problem.
However, the IE7 bug is a different story. I should have been clearer — it occurs for me whether I'm using a clean install and also on wp.com. I can send you a new screenshot tomorrow, if you'd like.

That's odd. I still can't reproduce - it works fine in IE7 as well as IE8 in IE7 mode. Hopefully someone else can... I would be very surprised if it's OS-dependent, but that's all I can think of.

Do you have access to another PC with IE7? Just to verify it is IE7 in general and not a addon? (As unlikely as that may be, but since we cant duplicate it)

Can't see a problem in IE7 with the Admin Bar.
Please reopen if the issue still exists, but check if all your plugins are deactivated and you are using the default theme.
Flash issue can be discussed in #11436.
Both these issues look like a problem with the CSS for your theme (which is probably why it works on wp.com). I'm unable to reproduce with WP3.1/twentyten.
