I love the edit/del function because it makes me look less mentally deficient.

              Ur flash movie is already transparent accordingly to the code u posted.
             
            
              
            
           
          
            
              
                system

              That’s what I thought it should be transparent, but it has a white background when I open it in Dreamweaver. Because I did make it Windowless Transparent in the publish settings. I probably should say that to start off with, I don’t know all the jargon for flash yet so I will probably say things wierd, too.

              Try opening ur file in your browser. Then change the body bgcolor and try it again. It should work.
