The transparent thing was great. But do you have any idea on how to remove the flash which floats on the host html page. If I use a close button and give the code on (release) { this.unloadMovie(); } the swf surely goes away and I see the underlying html page only. But when I rightclick I can find that the 'About Flash Player 9' which means the flash still exists. The swf has unloaded and not the flash player which is running the swf. To get the idea you can visit <a href="http://www.pixelgenio.com/ongoingprojects/ipgeorgia/dress3.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.pixelgenio.com/ongoingprojects/ipgeorg...</a> If you an solve this for me that would be of great help. Thanks Regards Alex Hi…

If you click that you can just input wmode and transparent into that. Sam A quicker way if your using CS3, in the properties bar at the bottom of the window, there is a parameters option box.

<pre><code>
<script type="text/javascript"> // <![CDATA[
var flashvars = {};
var par = { wmode:"transparent" };
swfobject.embedSWF("<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/test.swf", "flash", "587", "240", "9.0.0", "<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/expressInstall.swf", flashvars, par );
// ]]>
</script>
</code></pre>
(this code is for wordpress, but you can replace the PHP with absolute or relative paths)
