ok ok …i got the transparency working. Can someone tell me how you can make html text and pictures appear “behind” the flash movie playing. Because when i insert it in Dreamweaver MX…the flash box is inserted…reserving that area for the flash movie…so how can html text and pictures exist “behind” it. Please help me out here.

I don’t know why your stuff isn’t working, but I can tell you to check in your HTML if this is in the object param tags:

PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparency

It’s all right here (if you didn’t start here, that is):
