Hi people, I’m a newbie and have recently found this great site (very helpful). :glasses:

Slight problem…

I’ve being editing the caption flash file posted by [**lunatic** quite a while back (thread located here [URL=“http://kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=55969&highlight=hover”]http://kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=55969&highlight=hover](http://kirupa.com/forum/member.php?u=4533) ).

I can edit most attributes to fit my site but is there anyway to make background caption, not transparent so it is easier to read the text? Currently the caption is unreadable because it hovers over the existing text.

Any help would be greatly appreciated…I’ve attached my flash file for you guys to look at if you can.
