Simple fix for youtube vs. fixed layers
 

The situation:
The header of my website resides in a fixed layer (position:fixed). This allows the header to stay in place while everything else scrolls underneath it.

The Problem:
When users embed youtube videos in their posts the video passes over the header rather than underneath it like everything else. This happens no matter what the z-index is.

The Fix:
I added this simple replacement variable to the forum's default style to resolve the issue.


Working Example:
Example thread containing embedded youtube video

This is also helpful with youtube videos that overlap highslide dimming
