HTML over SWF

Hello Everyone.

I am new to this board and this question has probably been asked but I’m not sure just how to find it yet and I need a quick answer. Can I put plain HTML over an swf using CSS layers(Z-index). Basically I have and animation I want playing in the background and I wand to put my plain HTML over the animation. I thought I could use z-index but that seems to blink in and ou when I don that.

Has anyone here done this that can give me a quick answer.

Much appreciated in advance!
