Safari not playing AS3 for my page right

The site

This page works fine in IE8/9 and Firefox but when played in safari it seems to skip the first two function and only play the last one on the page…. any ideas?

The AS3 code:

stop();
everett_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnEverettClickHandler);
function btnEverettClickHandler (event:MouseEvent) : void {
navigateToURL (new URLRequest(""));
trace("I’m clicked");
}

seattle_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnSeattleClickHandler);
function btnSeattleClickHandler (event:MouseEvent) : void {
navigateToURL (new URLRequest(""));

trace("I’m clicked");
}
desmoines_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnDesmoinesClickHandler);
function btnDesmoinesClickHandler (event:MouseEvent) : void {
navigateToURL (new URLRequest(""));

trace("I’m clicked");
}

Okay so the problem isnt with the as3 code at all, it’s caused by the flash menu overlapping the content below. Even in wmode=transparent the content in the nonvisible dropdown menu is overlapping and preventing the buttons in the div below from playing.

Anyone got any ideas? I tried adjusting z-index and position types, but this will either cause the lower div to overlap the menu or vise-versa.

I fucking hate you safari.

Who still builds Flash sites? Especially company websites? Jesus.
