Hi,

I have a huge problem, or for me atleast it is. On my [page](http://jonasjohansson.se) I have a full-browser-flash as a background and everytime I refresh the page or go to another part of it it flashes with the background-color (now it’s black so a small black flash will appear).

Now, how can I fix this? It’s a known problem I think but I can’t find the answer. I have the latest SWFobject, and my CSS is working with the flash at a “z-index: -1”, I’ve tried working with the different depths but the result is always the same.

Appreciate the help!

// If I use a preloader, could that solve the issue??
