Hi!

I am using this solution: [http://blog.codefidelity.com/?p=18](http://blog.codefidelity.com/?p=18)  
However when I use it I have a problem, the background (my flash file) disapears under the Lightbox. I would like the background of my Lightbox to be transparent. It should work but I can’t solve it. What am I doing wrong?

You can see my site via: [http://www.redpoint.se/mp/etiketter.html](http://www.redpoint.se/mp/etiketter.html)  
Click on the button with all the colors saying: “Klicka här för att se prover…” and the lightbox will start. The backround turns grey instead of transparent.

Please help me out if you can!

Best regards  
JoakimN
