I remember seeing a post ages ago about overlaying swf files (particularly adverts) onto html pages.
I did a search, but couldn’t find it so forgive me for asking again. Does anyone know where to find tutorials on overlaying swf adverts onto a html page?

Its something to do with background transparency in the embed tags, i believe.
